In this review we highlight the relevance of biodiversity that inhabit coastal lagoons,
emphasizing how species functions foster processes and services associated with this …

The present survey examines the trophodynamics of a suite of 19 perfluoroalkyl substances
(PFASs) in a temperate macrotidal estuary (Gironde, SW France). Across the 147 biota …

Per-and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are a large class of highly fluorinated
anthropogenic chemicals. Some PFAS bioaccumulate in aquatic food webs, thereby posing …

Coastal zones are productive areas that serve as nursery grounds for a large number of
marine species. However, the processes involved in survival success during the juvenile …

The Gulf of Lions ecosystem was described using the Ecopath mass-balance model to
characterise its structure and functioning and to examine the effects of the multispecific …

This study aims to characterize and compare the feeding ecology of the European eels
(Anguilla anguilla L.) during the continental phase (ie yellow and silver) along a salinity …

The concept of trophic level is particularly relevant in order to improve knowledge of the
structure and the functioning of an ecosystem. A precise estimation of fish trophic levels …

Stable isotope analysis (SIA) of carbon (δ 13 C) and nitrogen (δ 15 N) was used to analyse
the macrobenthic food web dynamics in the Gulf of Gaeta (Tyrrhenian sea, Central Italy) …

River flow variability is known to influence estuarine production, yet knowledge on its effect
upon estuarine food webs dynamics is still scarce. Stable carbon and nitrogen isotopes …

Biological invasion is one of the important reasons for the decline of freshwater biodiversity
in China and even in the world. The Pearl river basin is one of the most threatened areas in …
