Abstract The Coniacian-Santonian (CS) was a time of differentiation in marine
sedimentation, characterized by organic carbon (OC)-rich black shales and carbonates …

Since 1971, remote sensing techniques have been used to map and monitor phenomena
and parameters of the coastal zone. However, updated reviews have only considered one …

This study addresses the occurrence of extreme values of chlorophyll-a concentrations in
European seas, using the satellite's OBGP MODIS AQUA v2018 dataset, for the 2003–2021 …

Cumulative human pressures and climate change can induce nonlinear discontinuous
dynamics in ecosystems, known as regime shifts. Regime shifts typically imply hysteresis, a …

The primary production (PP) by phytoplankton in marine ecosystems is essential for carbon
cycling and fueling food webs. Hence, estimating the PP in the territorial sea of each country …

Stranding data provide fundamental information on biometric traits of cetaceans useful to
increase knowledge on ecological traits and their consumption patterns. In this study, the …

Decadal trends in the zooplankton community were seasonally investigated in multiple
monitoring transects of the western Mediterranean Sea during a period of increasing and …

Quantifying the abundance of Chattonella species is necessary to effectively manage the
threats from ichthyotoxic raphidophytes, which can cause large-scale mortality of …

The main aim of this paper is to paint an ecological picture of the phytoplankton communities
of two adjacent and connected ecosystems, one transitional and one coastal marine, in the …

Abstract The Mediterranean Sea is warming about 20% more rapidly than global ocean and
this phenomenon is impacting ecosystems and biodiversity. Planktonic foraminifera are an …
