Invasive species, pathogens, and parasites can have serious ecological consequences for aquatic ecosystems and also put human health and economies at risk. Early detection of these biological threats ...
“Our results indicate that microplastics may tip the balance of conditions in favor of algal blooms,” the authors conclude in their study. “These results collectively illustrate that microplastics, ...
The revised framework expands protection of aquatic ecosystems. MAHWAH, N.J., Nov. 12, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- A new open-access manuscript in Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry marks a major step ...
Aquatic organisms exhibit a range of behavioural adaptations when confronted with contaminated environments. In recent decades, research has revealed that both chronic and acute contamination events ...
A new study explores waste management systems and reveals that achieving zero waste leakage by 2030 is unlikely, potentially jeopardizing related Sustainable Development Goals. The authors emphasize ...
This Collection supports and amplifies research related to SDG 3, SDG 6 and SDG 14. Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a global public health threat. AMR is associated with millions of deaths worldwide ...
A new publication from Opto-Electronic Advances; DOI 10.29026/oea.2025.240260 discusses a novel strategy for detecting trace-level nanoplastics in aquatic environments. Plastic materials have ...
Concerns have been raised about the potential toxicity of sunscreens to a variety of marine and freshwater aquatic organisms, particularly corals. At the same time, there are concerns that people will ...
Vascular plants that moved back into the water did not simply shed complexity and shrink their genomes. New genomic work shows that many aquatic lineages instead rewire and expand key gene families, ...
Aster-like nanoparticles (ALNs) are newly described femto-entities. Their ecology (e.g., geographic distribution, spatial dynamic, preferences, forcing factors) is still unknown. Here, we report that ...
Some make nests inside seashells, others tote bubbles of air on their backs. The spiders that went back to water evolved lots of slick survival strategies. By Amber Dance/Knowable Magazine Published ...
