Monitoring the Intertidal Environment with Biomimetic Devices

TL;DR: For example, the intertidal invertebrates and algae are sessile or slow moving and cannot prevent being exposed to extreme stressful events, and thus are recognized as sensitive indicators of the effects of climate variability and climate change as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fate of a climate-driven colonisation: Demography of newly established populations of the limpet Patella rustica Linnaeus, 1758, in northern Portugal

TL;DR: The demographic analyses suggested that even though early life stages are probably affected by extreme low winter temperatures, adults are less sensitive, with important consequences for the resilience of marginal populations and the fluctuations of distributional ranges.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cardiac responses of the bay scallop Argopecten irradians to diel-cycling hypoxia

TL;DR: In-situ cardiac activity at locations with diel-cycling hypoxia indicate that A. irradians spent nearly 40% of each day in sub-optimal conditions during which metabolic activity was reduced and/or at least partially sustained by anaerobic metabolism.
Journal ArticleDOI

Evolution at a Different Pace: Distinctive Phylogenetic Patterns of Cone Snails from Two Ancient Oceanic Archipelagos

TL;DR: It is suggested that recurrent gene flow between the Canary Islands and West Africa, habitat losses due to intense volcanic activity in combination with unsuccessful colonization of new Conus species from more diverse regions, were all determinant in shaping diversity patterns within the Canarian archipelago.
