Ecosystem engineering is increasingly recognized as a relevant ecological driver of diversity
and community composition. Although engineering impacts on the biota can vary from …

Pacific oysters are now one of the most 'globalised'marine invertebrates. They dominate
bivalve aquaculture production in many regions and wild populations are increasingly …

Abstract Effects of microplastic pollution on benthic organisms and ecosystem services
provided by sedimentary habitats are largely unknown. An outdoor mesocosm experiment …

Exotic species are a growing global ecological threat; however, their overall effects are
insufficiently understood. While some exotic species are implicated in many species …

The accumulation of plastic debris is a global environmental problem due to its durability,
persistence, and abundance. Although effects of plastic debris on individual marine …

Overfishing, nutrient-fuelled hypoxia and habitat destruction have reduced oyster
populations to a fraction of their former abundance. Over the past two decades there has …

Pacific oysters (Crassostrea gigas) have been introduced worldwide for aquaculture, which
can benefit food sovereignty and economic development; however, established non‐native …

Large mammalian grazers can alter the biotic and abiotic features of their environment
through their impacts on vegetation. Grazing at moderate intensity has been recommended …

Non-native species can simultaneously affect ecological structures, functions, and services
of the invaded ecosystem. In this paper, we report that the study of non-native species …

Removal of nitrogen through enhanced denitrification has been identified as an ecosystem
service provided by oysters. In this study, we assessed the effects of an individual oyster …
