Global microplastic (MP) pollution is a serious environmental problem that has been found
in various ecosystems, especially marine ecosystems. In this study, the water (surface …

Marine ecosystem models have been used to project the impacts of climate-induced
changes in temperature and oxygen on biodiversity mainly through changes in species …

Quantifying the trophic role of a species is key to understanding its ecology and ecological
role. Their trophic role can influence community composition, ecosystem stability, and …

Abstract Knowledge of the trophic structure and variability of planktonic communities is a key
factor in understanding food-web dynamics and energy transfer from zooplankton to higher …

Staphylococcus is a significant food safety hazard. The marine environment serves as a
source of food for humans and is subject to various human-induced discharges, which may …

Marine ecosystems are exposed to multiple stressors, mainly fisheries that, whenever
mismanaged, may cause irreversible damages to whole food webs. Ecosystem models have …

Parasites play a key but overlooked role in the functioning of marine systems.
Understanding the drivers of parasite infection in fish is thus crucial. Anisakis levels in the …

Macroalgae and phytoplankton support the base of highly productive nearshore ecosystems
in cold-temperate regions. To better understand their relative importance to nearshore food …

High trophic plasticity is often invoked to explain the successful expansion of many aquatic
species. Bombay duck (BD) outcompete other traditionally commercial fishes in the East …

The aim of this study was to assess seasonal variation in the food-web structure of fish
assemblages in the East (two sites) and the South (one site) Seas of Korea, and to compare …
