Carrying capacity has become a fundamental concept within the context of environmental
management. Carrying capacity for aquaculture has been studied since the 1960s and has …

The variability of the phytoplankton biomass derived from daily chlorophyll-a (Chl-a) satellite
images was investigated over the period 1998–2017 in the surface waters of the English …

Aim The spread of non‐indigenous species in marine ecosystems world‐wide is one of
today's most serious environmental concerns. Using mechanistic modelling, we investigated …

Although geographical patterns of species' sensitivity to environmental changes are defined
by interacting multiple stressors, little is known about compensatory processes shaping …

Globally, the production of marine bivalves has been steadily increasing over the past
several decades. As the effects of human population growth are magnified, bivalves help …

Shape variability represents an important direct response of organisms to selective
environments. Here, we use a combination of geometric morphometrics and generalised …

At a proximal level, the physiological impacts of global climate change on ectothermic
organisms are manifest as changes in body temperatures. Especially for plants and animals …

Shellfish aquaculture implies the placement of artificial structures in the coastal environment
and the alteration of natural bivalve populations, which calls for the establishment of …

Remote sensing data is useful for selection of aquaculture sites because it can provide
water-quality products mapped over large regions at low cost to users. However, the spatial …

Climate change exposes benthic species populations in coastal ecosystems to a
combination of different stressors (eg, warming, acidification and eutrophication) …
