Natural ecosystems are experiencing unprecedented rates of change due to anthropogenic
activities and global change, leading to either gradual changes in a given response or …

The morphological anomalies of the early development stages of the sea urchin
Paracentrotus lividus, caused by exposure to environmental stressors, are used as …

Predicting the response of marine animals to climate change is hampered by a lack of
multigenerational studies on evolutionary adaptation, particularly to combined ocean …

The rise of plastic production has triggered a surge in plastic waste, overwhelming marine
ecosystems with microplastics. The effects of climate change, notably changing salinity …

Aquatic environments face escalating challenges from multiple stressors like hypoxia and
nanoparticle exposure, with impact on mussel immunity, especially under prolonged …

Recently, the abundance of environmental microplastics (MPs) has become a global
paramount concern. Besides the danger of MPs for biota due to their tiny size, these minute …

Much of the world's formerly “intact” land cover has been modified by humans with major
impacts on biodiversity. Extensive areas of already modified land are now being subjected …

The vulnerability of bivalve mollusks to micropollutants is estimated mainly in single model
exposures. However, chronic environmental stress and complex exposures can modulate …

Oil and gas exploitation introduces toxic contaminants such as hydrocarbons and heavy
metals to the surrounding sediment, resulting in deleterious impacts on marine benthic …

Marine-coastal ecosystems are rapidly transforming because of climate change (CC). At the
same time, the impacts of emerging organic contaminants (ie, organic UV-filters) on these …
