Title : Seasonal habitat shifts and purse seine dependence of mene maculata in the Taiwan strait: Early indicators of climate driven ecosystem change
Ipsita Biswas, National Taiwan Ocean University, Taiwan
The moonfish (Mene maculata), a dominant forage species in the Taiwan Strait, supports Taiwan’s purse-seine fleets, which account for ~99% of national landings. This gear-specific reliance makes purse-seine catch trends a valuable lens for detecting ecological change. Using [....] » Read More
Title : Site suitability analysis for sea cucumber mariculture in the coastal area of Bangladesh
Muhammad Mizanur Rahman, Shahjalal University of Science and Technology, Bangladesh
Sea cucumber (Holothuria spp.) mariculture could be a significant prospect for blue growth in Bangladesh because of its strong demand in the international market and ecological benefits, including sediment bioturbation and water filtration. This study utilized environmental data [....] » Read More
Title : Linking phenotypic plasticity and environmental stress responses to conservation of endemic cyprinids in Moroccan freshwater ecosystems
Abdelilah Ahnich, Sultan Moulay Slimane University, Morocco
Moroccan freshwater ecosystems support exceptional endemic biodiversity but are increasingly threatened by climate change and human disturbances. Understanding how species coexist and adapt along environmental gradients is essential for predicting ecosystem responses to global ch [....] » Read More
