Ingestion of microplastic has limited impact on a marine larva
There is increasing concern about the impacts of microplastics (< 1 mm) on marine biota.
Microplastics may be mistaken for food items and ingested by a wide variety of organisms …

Ex situ co culturing of the sea urchin, Mespilia globulus and the coral Acropora millepora enhances early post-settlement survivorship
Reef restoration efforts, utilising sexual coral propagation need up-scaling to have
ecologically meaningful impact. Post-settlement survival bottlenecks, in part due to …

Effect of bacterial biofilms formed on fouling-release coatings from natural seawater and Cobetia marina, on the adhesion of two marine algae
S Mieszkin, P Martin-Tanchereau, ME Callow… - Biofouling, 2012 - Taylor & Francis
Previous studies have shown that bacterial biofilms formed from natural seawater (NSW)
enhance the settlement of spores of the green alga Ulva linza, while single-species biofilms …

Impacts of ocean acidification on sea urchin growth across the juvenile to mature adult life-stage transition is mitigated by warming
Understanding how growth trajectories of calcifying invertebrates are affected by changing
climate requires acclimation experiments that follow development across life-history …

Novel shaker bottle cultivation method for the long spined sea urchin (Diadema antillarum; Philippi, 1845) results in high larval survival and settlement rates
The long spined sea urchin Diadema antillarum was an abundant grazer on Caribbean
coral reefs, until 1983–1984, when densities were reduced by∼ 98% during a region wide …
