Abstract: The ecology of phototrophic corals in the lower photic zone remains poorly understood. Studies to date indicate that growth rates generally decrease as available light attenuates with depth and are very slow at depths > 40 m.… read more here.

Abstract: Phosphorus-inactivating agents (PIAs) have been increasingly applied and extensively investigated to control internal phosphorus loading in lakes. However, little is known about the behavior of PIA-amended sediment in terms of phosphorus immobilization and release when… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/molbev/msac100
Abstract: For billions of years, life has continuously adapted to dynamic physical conditions near the Earth’s surface. Fossils and other preserved biosignatures in the paleontological record are the most direct evidence for reconstructing the broad historical… read more here.
