Abstract: Mass mortality events involving marine taxa are increasing worldwide. The long-spined sea urchin Diadema africanum is considered a keystone herbivore species in the northeastern Atlantic due to its control over the abundance and distribution of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1080/00288330.2020.1772323
Abstract: ABSTRACT Three independent annual surveys with some spatial–temporal overlap were amalgamated to describe the population dynamics of the New Zealand intertidal cockle (Austrovenus stutchburyi) at Lews Bay, Whangateau Harbour from 1997–2018. After more than a… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/gcb.13344
Abstract: Mass mortality events caused by pulse anthropogenic or environmental perturbations (e.g., extreme weather, toxic spills or epizootics) severely reduce the abundance of a population in a short time. The frequency and impact of these events… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/jfd.12883
Abstract: The acute course of disease in young oysters infected by OsHV-1 and the rapid tissue degradation often preclude histological examination of specimens collected during outbreaks in field. Herein, live spat originated from two geographical areas… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/v14122603
Abstract: Freshwater mussels (Unionida) are among the world’s most imperiled taxa, but the relationship between freshwater mussel mortality events and infectious disease is largely unstudied. We surveyed viromes of a widespread and abundant species (mucket, Actinonaias… read more here.
