Researchers led by the University of Hawai’i at Manoa have found that a surprising number of coastal marine invertebrate species can now survive and reproduce in the open ocean on floating plastic ...

For a portrait photographer, Susan Middleton has an unusual studio. It's mobile, for one thing, and it requires the subject to be confined in a small glass box. But the results are gorgeous. In her ...

Marine invertebrates represent a critical component of aquatic ecosystems with reproductive processes that are highly vulnerable to endocrine perturbations. Research in this field has revealed that ...

A completely new order of marine sponges has been found by researchers at the Museum of Evolution, Uppsala University. The sponge order, named Vilesida, produces substances that could be used in drug ...

An international scientific study, led by the UPC's Laboratory of Applied Bioacoustics (LAB), shows that noise from human operations at sea damages marine invertebrates and ocean ecosystems. Published ...

Competition is a ubiquitous structuring force across systems, but different fields emphasize the role of different types of competition. In benthic marine environments, where some of the classic ...

Scientists at Scripps Institution of Oceanography at the University of California San Diego have found that low oxygen levels in seawater could blind some marine invertebrates. These results, ...

Photographing animals is never easy, but marine invertebrates—underwater creatures without backbones—are especially tricky: They tend to be small, sometimes they’re transparent, and they’re often ...

Marine invertebrates are impacted by the rising levels of underwater noise produced by humans, but the production of underwater noise is not only difficult to control, but the direct effect on marine ...

This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract Photosynthesis and translocation of photosynthetic products from symbiotic zooxanthellae in four species of temperate-latitude invertebrates ...

The Art of Movement is a monthly show that highlights the most significant innovations in science and technology that are helping shape our modern world. Fish and marine mammals get all the attention, ...
