This study investigated ferromanganese oxide (Fe-Mn oxide) precipitated on porifera
located on the tabletop of the Magellan seamount (OSM17, 1571 m depth) in the western …

Selected hypermineralized bones (rostrum and tympanic bullae) have yet to be
characterized for diverse species of whales (Cetacea). Hypermineralization in these …

High-resolution marine data are critical to evaluating anthropogenic impacts on our
environment. Considering the spatial and temporal limitations of direct instrumental …

The chemical ecology of rotifers has been little studied. A yet unknown property is presented
within some monogonant rotifers, namely the ability to produce an exogenic filamentous …

Structural and physiochemical properties contribute to the biological adaptation of deep-sea
animals to their harsh living environment but have hardly been investigated systematically …

Functional and ecological genomics in emerging marine models is shaping our views on
new and fundamental biological questions. Representing a wealth of morphological …

This study focuses on the ability of commercial natural bath sponges, which are made from
the skeletons of marine sponges, to sorb Hg from natural waters. The main component of …

Fossils within early Cambrian phosphorites worldwide are often well preserved due to early
diagenetic permineralization. Here, we examine the fossil record contained within …

This paper reviews all currently known records of copepod crustaceans of the family
Lamippidae (Cyclopoida). The lamippids are highly modified endosymbionts found only on …

The exploration of new materials as well as methods and sources of their production is a
constantly growing trend in both scientific and industrial directions. One such method is …
