River confluences are nodes where the unique hydrological processes of two rivers meet,
resulting in complex flow structure and water quality mixing processes. Thus, greater food …

Offshore oil and gas platforms (OGP) have been installed worldwide and initially with limited
consideration given to the nature of their positive or negative long-term interactions with the …

Nearshore areas represent important habitats for many species, at least for part of their life
cycle. Therefore, modeling and mapping nearshore habitats is essential for natural resource …

As the majority of marine organisms are water-breathing ectotherms, temperature and
dissolved oxygen are key environmental variables that influence their fitness and …

As global oceans continue to warm and deoxygenate, it is expected that marine ectotherms
will reduce in body size resulting from the interactive effects of temperature and dissolved …

Installations of artificial structures in coastal oceans create de facto habitat for marine life.
These structures encompass wide varieties of physical characteristics, reflecting their …

The number of decommissioned oil and gas platforms will increase over the coming
decades. In the tropics and sub-tropics, platforms may operate near biodiverse natural …

Artificial reef designs have evolved rapidly over the past two decades, but further work is
needed to inform how specific design features affect reef function. In south-eastern Australia …

Climate change and human activities, for example, dam construction, largely affect
hydrologic and hydrodynamic processes of river‐lake system, and hence exerted serious …

Artificial reefs have been deployed throughout the northern Gulf of Mexico in an effort to
enhance fish production and mitigate losses from the depletion of natural habitats …
