Coastal ecosystems of Bushehr are shallow environments subject to human impacts, including shrimp aquaculture and urban expansion activities. A spatial-temporal study was conducted in order to assess the actual ecological status of the creeks, estuary and marine sites on the basis of their taxonomic composition and density of mesozooplankton. Zooplankton species distribution and abundance data ...

This study aimed to assess ecological quality status of hard substratum macroinvertebrates communities of the Caspian Sea with three ecological indices and their relationship with environmental factors. For this purpose, benthic communities of the Caspian Sea basin were studied seasonally during 2014 in 8 sampling sites. Temperature, salinity, dissolved oxygen, pH, nitrate, nitrite, silicate an...

extensive research in the last decade has defined that most chronic diseases display dysregulation of multiple cell signaling pathways that have been linked to inflammation. neuroinflammation is reaction of living nervous tissue to injury. it may be initiated in response to neurological disease. including infection, traumatic brain injury, toxic metabolites and autoimmunity. the natural compoun...

A total of 154 samples of marine (n=51) and freshwater fish (n=103) were obtained from fish markets in Elazig Province of eastern Turkey. These samples were tested for Campylobacter, Listeria and Salmonella using culturing and biochemical methods. Campylobacter failed to be detected in any freshwater or marine fish samples. Listeria was detected in 22 and 14 of gill and skin samples from freshw...

Clam peptides, marine-derived biological have been broadly investigated and applied as health foods, among which immunomodulation is one of their activities that cannot be ignored in vivo. In this study, we concentrated on exploring the effects Ruditapes philippinarum peptides (RPPs) balance intestinal microbiota hydrocortisone (HC)-induced immunosuppressed mice. The results revealed RPPs could...

Abstract The objective of the ecosystem approach to fisheries management is sustain healthy marine ecosystems and they support. One earliest implementations was in Southern Ocean, where decision rules stock reference points were developed for managing Antarctic krill fishery, together with an ecosystem-monitoring programme intended aid decisions. This latter component has not been incorporated ...

We applied standard acoustic methods to record, analyze and compare anthropogenic biological signals belonging the soundscape of artificial marine habitats. The study was conducted on two tanks located at Acquario di Genova (Italy), “Red Sea” “Tropical Lagoon” tanks, which represent different living environments hosting a variety species background sounds. use seven eco-acoustic indices, whose ...

Abstract. Recent advances in visual data analysis are well suited to gain insights into dynamical processes the atmosphere. We apply novel methods for three-dimensional (3-D) interactive investigate marine cold air outbreaks (MCAOs) and polar lows (PLs) recently released ERA5 reanalysis data. Our study aims at revealing 3-D perspectives on MCAOs PLs improving diagnostic indices capture these we...

Marine heatwaves are prolonged events of anomalously warm water that affect diverse marine habitats and their associated biota. Evidence shows anthropogenic climate change is increasing the frequency duration coral reef systems sensitive to thermal stress imposed by these heatwaves. In this study, we examined fish community response consecutive (2014-2015) analyzing changes in assemblages Hawai...
