Abstract:

Increases in algal growth have been reported in rivers, reservoirs, and other water resources worldwide, including Korea. Algal overgrowth can result in algal bloom, which has several negative impacts, such as ecosystem degradation and economic losses. Mitigation measures employed in Korea include an algal warning system and survey-based water quality forecast systems. However, these methods are time-consuming and require sample collection from the site. On the other hand, remote sensing techniques that use chlorophyll a are unable to distinguish between different types of algal species. In th

Abstract:

One of the most prominent coral diseases in Hawai‘i is growth anomaly (GA) of the skeleton. GA reduces key biological functions of Montipora capitata, but the effect of this disease on the ecological competitiveness of the coral has not been investigated. This study evaluated the effect of the GA on the susceptibility of an endemic Hawaiian coral M. capitata to algal overgrowth at Wai‘ōpae, Hawai‘i. Field surveys and photo analyses were conducted to collect epizootiological data. A relationship was found between GA severity and turf algal growth at the colony level; however, this relationship

Abstract:

Observations of coral–algal competition can provide valuable information about the state of coral reef ecosystems. Here, we report contact rates and apparent competition states for six shallow lagoonal reefs in Fiji. A total of 81.4% of examined coral perimeters were found to be in contact with algae, with turf algae (54.7%) and macroalgae of the genus Lobophora (16.8%) representing the most frequently observed contacts. Turf algae competitiveness was low, with 21.8% of coral–turf contacts being won by the algae (i.e. overgrowth or bleaching of coral tissue). In contrast, Lobophora competitive

Microbes play a key role in reef dynamics, mediating the competition between scleractinian corals and benthic algae; however, major shifts in bacterial communities among coral species in response to increases in the abundance of algae are not well understood. We investigated the taxonomic composition of coral-associated microbial communities under algae-overgrowth conditions using 16S rRNA gene sequencing. The results showed that non-algal (i.e., healthy) tissue (HH) had lower bacterial abundance and diversity than tissue collected from the coral–algae interface boundary (HA) and areas of alga

The fabrication of a strain-damping PS in a GaN template shields against the stres

Abstract:

Competition for limited space is an important driver of benthic community structure on coral reefs. Studies of coral-algae and coral-sponge interactions often show competitive dominance of algae and sponges over corals, but little is known about the outcomes when these groups compete in a multispecies context. Multispecies competition is increasingly common on Caribbean coral reefs as environmental degradation drives loss of reef-building corals and proliferation of alternative organisms such as algae and sponges. New methods are needed to understand multispecies competition, whose outcomes ca

Abstract:

Eutrophication is a process that occurs due to the excessive accumulation of nutrients, primarily nitrogen and phosphorus, from natural and anthropogenic sources. This phenomenon causes cyanobacterial overgrowth, which over time leads to cyanobacterial harmful algal blooms (CHABs) that affect public drinking water sources and water sites with recreational usage. The rapid detection of bloom-forming cyanobacteria in freshwater bodies is critical in order to implement prevention strategies. Cyanobacteria contain phycobiliproteins such as phycoerythrin and allophycocyanin as part of the phycobili

Abstract:

Eutrophication, the excessive enrichment of water bodies with nutrients, is a pervasive environmental issue with far-reaching ecological, economic, and social consequences. Eutrophication, often termed as the 'silent menace' of aquatic ecosystems, is a process with profound environmental implications. It occurs when excessive nutrients, typically nitrogen and phosphorus, accumulate in water bodies, stimulating the overgrowth of algae and aquatic plants. As these organisms flourish, they deplete oxygen levels in the water, leading to detrimental consequences for aquatic life. This phenomenon, t

Abstract:

Echinoderms such as sea urchins are important in marine ecosystems, particularly as grazers, and unhealthy sea urchins can have important ecological implications. For instance, unexplained mortalities of Diadema antillarum in the Caribbean were followed by algal overgrowth and subsequent collapse of coral reef ecosystems. Unfortunately, few tools exist to evaluate echinoderm health, making management of mortalities or other health issues problematic. Hematology is often used to assess health in many animal groups, including invertebrates, but is seldom applied to echinoderms. We used a standar

Abstract:

Harmful algal blooms (HABs) are overgrowths of toxic strains of algae (diatoms, green) and cyanobacteria (blue-green algae). While occurring naturally, human-induced environmental changes have resulted in more frequent occurrences of such blooms worldwide. Meantime, the ecotoxicological risk of HABs is rarely evaluated by means of standard test methods. For the first time, the genotoxic potential of the HAB event 2020 was assessed using two different Tradescantia-based test systems (Trad-SHM and Trad-MN, 24-h exposure).

Abstract:

Phosphorus contamination in water bodies is a major contributor to eutrophication, leading to algal overgrowth, oxygen depletion, and ecological imbalance. Conventional treatment methods, including chemical precipitation and synthetic adsorbents, are often limited by high operational costs, low biodegradability, and secondary pollutant generation. In this study, a cationic starch was synthesized through free radical graft polymerization of 3-methacrylamoylaminopropyl trimethyl ammonium chloride (MAPTAC) onto corn starch. The modified polymer exhibited a high degree of substitution (DS = 1.24),

Abstract:

Epitaxially laterally overgrown GaN on sapphire was used to reduce the number of threading dislocations originating from the interface of the GaN epilayer with the sapphire substrate. The GaN layer above the SiO2 mask area surrounding the window and corresponding to the lateral overgrowth was nearly free of threading dislocations. A high density of threading dislocations was observed in the vicinity of GaN grown in the window regions. InGaN multiquantum well-structure laser diodes (LDs) grown on pure GaN substrates, which were fabricated by removing the sapphire substrate, were demonstrated. T

Good agreement was found between the simulation and the experimental data, leading to an accurate determination of the dislocation densities as a function of the overgrowth layer thickness.

AbstractThe availability of colonizable substrate is an important driver of the temporal dynamics of sessile invertebrates on coral reefs. Increased dominance of algae and, in some cases, sponges has been documented on many coral reefs around the world, but how these organisms benefit from non-colonized substrate on the reef is unclear. In this study, we described the temporal dynamics of benthic organisms on an Indonesian coral reef across two time periods between 2006 and 2017 (2006–2008 and 2014–2017), and investigated the effects of colonizable substrate on benthic cover of coral reef orga
