While environmental alterations have made Homo sapiens the hyperkeystone species of the
globe, biotic homogenization initiated a new era, the “Homogenocene.” Still, some terrestrial …

The intensity of marine heatwaves is increasing due to climate change. Heatwaves may
affect macroinvertebrates' bioturbating behavior in intertidal areas, thereby altering the …

Tropical ocean-exposed sandy beaches have an essential ecological function for marine
fish species, which use these turbulent areas as nurseries. These habitats are characterized …

This paper is a literature review on marine hardbottom environments (MHE) that emerge in
coastal regions in the Brazilian state of Ceará. This stretch of the Brazilian coast houses …

In reef environments, fish assemblages are characterized by great species diversity in a vast
spectrum of niches. In addition, many species constitute important resources for fisheries …

Rock pools are understudied systems of extreme importance due to their proven
vulnerability to climate change. Rock pool molluscs play essential ecological roles therein …

Rocky intertidal shores are diverse ecosystems that have been extensively studied, yet there
is a surprising lack of knowledge on the methods best suited to quantifying species …

Soft-substrate tide pools are considered important habitats for fishes from an ecological
perspective. However, the ecological roles of such pools and use patterns by fish remain …

Fish communities inhabiting soft-sediment areas are representative conservation targets for
coastal habitats, but how the ecological function of soft-sediment tidepools drives diversity is …

This study investigated the variability of molluscan assemblages of rock pools according to
location and pool size. The study was carried out in three sandstone reefs on the west coast …
