Age dependent physiological tolerances explain population dynamics and distribution in the intertidal zone: A study with porcelain crabs
(2021-07)Population dynamics and their response to environmental stressors have been widely studied in intertidal organisms. However, how these dynamics and responses change with animal age have been largely ignored to date. ... -
Carry-over effects modulated by salinity during the early ontogeny of the euryhaline crab Hemigrapsus crenulatus from the Southeastern Pacific coast: Development time and carbon and energy content of offspring
(2018-03)Hemigrapsus crenulatus is a key species of coastal and estuarine ecosystems in the Southeastern Pacific and New Zealand. Since the gravid females-and their embryos-develop under conditions of variable salinity, we propose ... -
Distributions of three Alexandrium species and their toxins across a salinity gradient suggest an increasing impact of GDA producing A. pseudogonyaulax in shallow brackish waters of Northern Europe
(2019-07-28)Blooms of Alexandrium spp. are a well-known phenomenon in Northern European waters. While A. tamarense/ catenella, and A. pseudogonyaulax have been reported from marine waters, high densities of A. ostenfeldii are mainly ... -
Synergistic association with root endophytic fungi improves morpho-physiological and biochemical responses of Chenopodium quinoa to salt stress
(2022)Symbiotic associations with microbes can contribute to mitigating abiotic environmental stress in plants. In this study, we investigated individual and interactive effects of two root endophytic fungal species on physiological ... -
The glass half-empty: climate change drives lower freshwater input in the coastal system of the Chilean Northern Patagonia
(2019-07-24)Oceanographic conditions in coastal Chilean northern Patagonia (41–46°S) are strongly influenced by freshwater inputs. Precipitation and streamflow records have shown a marked decrease in this area during the last decades. ...
