Habitat use across the tidal cycle by black-headed gulls breeding in the Wadden Sea
Movements of birds foraging in intertidal areas are often strongly linked to the tidal cycle, as water levels determine where and when birds can...
-
Lunar and Tidal Rhythms and Clocks
The presence of the moon results in tidal and lunar cycles that particularly affect life in the intertidal zone through tidal motion. A few insect...

To hear or not to hear: selective tidal stream transport can interfere with the detectability of migrating silver eels in a Tidal River
Acoustic telemetry provides valuable insights into behavioural patterns of aquatic animals such as downstream migrating European eels ( Anguilla...

Wetland geomorphology and tidal hydrodynamics drive fine-scale fish community composition and abundance
Effective restoration of tidal wetlands for fish communities requires clear goals and mechanistic understanding of the ecosystem drivers which...

Seasonal and nutrient controls on phytoplankton in the Aransas River tidal freshwater zone, Texas, USA
Tidal freshwater zones (TFZs) can significantly affect nutrient transport from watersheds to estuaries through biogeochemical cycling. Phytoplankton,...

Carbon Dynamics Vary Among Tidal Marsh Plant Species in a Sea-level Rise Experiment
Tidal wetlands are important blue carbon reservoirs, but it is unclear how sea-level rise (SLR) may affect carbon cycling and soil microbial...
-
Tidal restriction likely has greater impact on the carbon sink of coastal wetland than climate warming and invasive plant
AimsCoastal salt marshes are productive ecosystems that are highly efficient carbon sinks, but there is uncertainty regarding the interactions among...

Climate and Vegetation Change in a Coastal Marsh: Two Snapshots of Groundwater Dynamics and Tidal Flooding at Piermont Marsh, NY Spanning 20 Years
Groundwater hydrology plays an important role in coastal marsh biogeochemical function, in part because groundwater dynamics drive the zonation of...

Feeding ecology and behavior of mimetic juveniles of the Maracaibo leatherjack Oligoplites palometa (Perciformes: Carangidae) observed in an Amazonian tidal channel
We describe and analyze the mimetic behavior in juvenile Maracaibo leatherjack, Oligoplites palometa , establishing correlations with feeding diet...

Temporal patterns of alpha and beta diversities of microzooplankton in a eutrophic tidal river in the eastern Amazon
Tidal rivers are peculiar, yet vastly unknown. These rivers are characterized by dynamic tides without saline intrusion. This unusual environmental...

Environmental influences on the phenology of immigrating juvenile eels over weirs at the tidal limit of regulated rivers
Recruitment of the catadromous and critically endangered European eel Anguilla anguilla in Europe has declined substantially since the 1980s, with...

Salicylic acid alleviates tidal flooding and salinity toxicity on Barringtonia racemosa seedlings by activating the stress defense mechanism
The tidal flooding and salinity stress caused by global warming and rising sea level challenge the survival of mangrove wetland plants. Salicylic...

Constraints on Cirsium hydrophilum var. hydrophilum, the Suisun thistle, an endangered tidal wetland species
The Suisun thistle, Cirsium hydrophilum (Greene) Jeps. var. hydrophilum (Asteraceae), is a federally-listed tidal wetland plant species limited to...

Effects of tidal emersion and marine heatwaves on cuttlefish early ontogeny
Anthropogenic climate change has increased the frequency and intensity of extreme weather events, such as marine heatwaves (MHW). They exert a strong...

Characteristics and adaptability of Flavobacterium panici BSSL-CR3 in tidal flat revealed by comparative genomic and enzymatic analysis
Tidal flat microbes play an important ecological role by removing organic pollutants and providing an energy source. However, bacteria isolated from...

Modeling Hydrodynamic and Hydrological Processes in Tidal Wetlands
Hydrologic processes in tidal wetlands are important regulators controlling the growth and productivity of salt marsh plants. Understanding...

Factors Influencing the Resilience of Created Tidal Marshes in the Fraser River Estuary, British Columbia
More than 100 tidal marsh creation projects were constructed throughout the Fraser River Estuary, British Columbia, Canada from the 1980s to present....

Extensive microphytobenthos mats of invasive Vaucheria aff. compacta and abiotic environmental factors influencing its abundance in Adventfjorden tidal flat, Svalbard
Arctic coastline ecosystems are affected by current sea level rise together with increasing anthropogenic and environmental physical and...

Sex-based divergence in tidal, lunar and seasonal cycles of activity in the olive sea snake, Aipysurus laevis (Elapidae, Hydrophiinae)
Marine environments show strong cycles at daily (tidal), monthly (lunar) and seasonal timeframes, and the behavioural responses of marine organisms...

Photosynthetic Capacity of Fucus vesiculosus Linnaeus, 1753 (Phaeophyta: Fucales) in the Barents Sea during the Tidal Cycle
AbstractDuring the tidal cycle, Fucus vesiculosus L. lost moisture (up to 30% of wet weight) and was characterized by a sinusoidal pattern in...
