abstract = {Artificial light at night (ALAN) is increasingly recognised as a pollutant that modifies natural light conditions and negatively impacts terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems. Marine hard-bottom communities are important components of coastal ecosystems, supporting diverse sessile organisms and early successional processes that can reveal community-level responses to environmental changes. This study investigated the influence of ALAN on early successional marine hard-bottom communities in a field experiment conducted in Madeira, Portugal. Simulated outdoor LED lighting systems were used to expose submerged PVC settlement panels to white and yellow light in order to assess their effects on the establishing communities over a three-month period. Light of both colours significantly altered community composition and the abundances of colonisers such as the hydrozoan Pennaria disticha and the red alga Polysiphonia sertularioides in comparison to assemblages that simultaneously established on non-illuminated surfaces. In general, ALAN-exposed communities exhibited a higher species richness but a lower evenness compared to non-exposed assemblages. Our results reveal the potential of ALAN to alter the biodiversity and structure of shallow-water, benthic communities and underscore the need for further research to assess the consequences of anthropogenic light emissions for coastal marine ecosystems.},

abstract = {Ecosystem regime shifts have received significant attention both from the perspective of the processes governing them and the consequences they entail. Most of the time, the focus is placed on habitat degradation with major transitions happening from healthy habitat states to depauperate conditions. In marine systems, well-known examples include coral reef collapse into macroalgal-dominated habitats and the conversion of kelp forests into sea urchin barrens. In Madeira Island (Macaronesia. NE Atlantic Ocean), the current invasion of the brown macroalgae Rugulopteryx okamurae poses a major threat to native coastal communities with major socioeconomic implications. This species was first detected in the archipelago of Madeira in December 2021 and has since been expanding along the coast of Madeira Island. Later in 2022, a mass mortality event (MME) of the main grazer species in the region, the sea urchin Diadema africanum, was detected. Here, we investigate the direct effects of the synchrony of these two events in time on a major regime shift in the coastal rocky systems along the southern coast of Madeira Island. Benthic surveys were conducted at four sites and two depths (5 m and 15 m) during two years (2021 and 2023), covering both spring and autumn. Results revealed major ecological changes: D. africanum densities dropped to zero, and previously barren areas transitioned into turf- and erect-algae-dominated habitats. including widespread proliferation of R. okamurae. At two sites, R. okamurae became the dominant species across both depths. Species richness and Shannon diversity increased at 15 m in 2023, while patterns at 5 m varied among sites. Our findings highlight the importance of temporal synchrony between ecological disturbances—in this case, invasion and grazer collapse—in driving regime shifts. While the long-term stability of this new state remains uncertain, it adds to growing evidence that algal turfs can act as alternative stable states to both kelp forests and barrens. Given the expected continued spread of R. okamurae in Madeira and across the NE Atlantic and Mediterranean, understanding the mechanisms behind its establishment and ecological impact is essential. Although this shift increased local biodiversitym, it does not signify the recovery of the original marine forests that historically characterized Madeira's reefs.},

abstract = {Effective reduction of oceanic plastic pollution requires scalable and objective monitoring methods that go beyond traditional human-based surveys. This review synthesizes recent advances in remote sensing and AI-driven image analysis for detecting macro-plastic litter. Peer-reviewed studies published up to 2024 were systematically selected from the Scopus database, focusing on applications of remote sensing platforms including webcams, drones, balloons, aircraft, and satellites for monitoring plastic litter in coastal, riverine, and other aquatic environments. Quantification methods ranged from manual annotation to deep learning-based models. Although machine learning has been increasingly adopted since around 2020, manual screening and rule-based approaches remain prevalent, reflecting the complexity of litter types and shapes. The review revealed considerable variability in quantification metrics—such as litter-covered area, volume, weight, and item count per unit area—which complicates cross-study comparisons and data harmonization. While remote sensing enhances spatial coverage, consistency, and repeatability, it faces persistent challenges, including environmental interference, limited resolution, and inconsistent protocols. Our findings highlight the urgent need for methodological standardization and harmonization of quantification units across platforms and geographic regions. Among available metrics, litter-covered area and item count per unit area are most suitable for cross-platform comparison. Continued development and integration of such technologies hold strong potential to facilitate science-based policymaking and long-term monitoring of plastic transport from land to ocean.},

abstract = {Coastal tourism and recreational activities contribute to the release of Personal Care Products, including sunscreens, which contain organic ultraviolet filters (oUVFs), increasingly recognised as contaminants of emerging concern in marine ecosystems. Oceanic islands offer natural laboratories for studying these compounds due to their isolated ecosystems and varying levels of human pressure. This study investigates the occurrence and distribution of oUVFs in seawater, sediments, and biota from three locations in the Madeira Archipelago with varying human influence, sampled during both high and low tourist seasons. Solid-phase extraction (SPE) and microwave-assisted extraction (MAE) were used as extraction methods, followed by UHPLC-MS/MS for identification and quantification. Eight of 11 target compounds were detected in at least one matrix. Total maximum concentrations reached 70.61 ng/L in seawater, 299.8 ng/g d.w. in algae, 472.2 ng/g d.w. in fish, and 651.33 ng/g d.w. in zooplankton. Detection frequencies and levels were highest at the site with the most significant anthropogenic pressure during the high tourist season. Zooplankton showed the highest accumulation levels, followed by herbivorous fish and red algae, while no oUVFs were detected in mesopredators and some invertebrates. Contamination was associated with proximity to shore and direct inputs linked with anthropogenic pressure. However, the oceanographic (e.g., currents, tides) and geological characteristics (rocky reefs) of oceanic islands must also be considered, as they can affect the environmental fate and distribution of oUVFs across different matrices. These findings highlight the need to monitor oUVFs in marine environments and identify susceptible species to improve ecological risk assessment and regulatory actions.},

We analyse biodiversity data records across the North Atlantic and highlight spatial data gaps that could provide important foci for future expeditions. We note particular data gaps in EEZs of nations within and bordering the Caribbean Sea. Our data provide a baseline against which progress can be tracked into the future. We review human impacts caused by fishing, shipping, mineral extraction, introduction of substances, and climate change, and provide an overview of international, regional and national measures to protect ecosystems. We recommend that scientific research in the deep sea should focus on increasing knowledge of the distribution and the connectivity of key species and habitats, and increasing our understanding of the processes leading to the delivery of ecosystem services. These three pillars - distribution, connectivity, ecosystem function - will provide the knowledge required to implement conservation and management measures to ensure that any deep-sea development in the future is sustainable. Infrastructure and capacity are unevenly distributed and implementation of strategies that will lead to more equitable deep-sea science is required to ensure that essential science can be delivered.},

abstract = {Seagrasses are highly sensitive to human-induced disturbances and global environmental changes. Since the 1980s, Zostera marina meadows along the West Swedish coast (Skagerrak) have declined significantly, as evidenced by changes in morpho-anatomical traits, reductions in area coverage, and shifts in associated communities. However, infaunal assemblages within Z. marina meadows remain understudied compared to epifaunal communities and have not been previously used as indicators of seagrass regression. To investigate spatial variability in infaunal composition, we analysed samples from 15 coastal stations at depths of 1.5–3 m depth. Using an n-dimensional hypervolume framework, we assessed functional differences between infaunal and epifaunal communities. We examined infaunal community descriptors—such as species richness and individual abundance—biotic indices, environmental drivers (including wave exposure and Z. marina biomass), and correlations with epifauna. Variability in infaunal composition across sampling stations was primarily driven by differences in the abundance of dominant taxa, including the polychaete Capitella capitata, oligochaetes, nematodes, and chironomids. Several coastal stations, such as Marstrand and Finsbo, were classified as moderately polluted, though biotic indices, i.e., AMBI, M-AMBI and ISI, showed discrepancies. Spatial patterns in infaunal assemblages were mainly influenced by Z. marina biomass and maximum fetch, with a good representation of oligochaetes and chironomids in exposed stations. These findings suggest that infauna respond differently from epifauna but provide valuable additional insights into the ecological status, functional traits, and trophic diversity of Z. marina meadows. Integrating multiple community components is essential for a more comprehensive understanding of the processes and patterns driving seagrass ecosystem regression.},

abstract = {Whales have long been suggested to enhance ocean productivity by recycling essential nutrients, yet their quantitative impact on primary production has remained uncertain. Our study quantifies nutrient release via feces and urine by baleen whales in high-latitude feeding grounds and evaluates its impact on primary production using ecosystem models. Results indicate that whales enhance ocean productivity, particularly in offshore regions where nutrients are scarce, leading to cascading effects on the food web. These findings highlight the ecological importance of whale-mediated nutrient cycling and emphasize the role of whale populations in sustaining productive and resilient marine ecosystems. Primary production in the ocean is a fundamental process that supports marine food webs and global carbon sequestration. This process depends on nutrients that are often limited in surface waters. Whales are known to release essential elements such as nitrogen, phosphorus, and iron, yet the extent of their contribution to ocean primary production remains unclear. Here, we present daily estimates of nutrient input by baleen whales in high-latitude feeding grounds (Nordic and Barents Seas), based on multielement analyses of feces and urine. We then used end-to-end ecosystem models to assess the impact of these nutrients on primary production. We found that nitrogen is primarily excreted via urine, whereas phosphorus and trace elements are mainly released through feces. Ecosystem models indicate that baleen whales, including minke, fin, sei, humpback, blue, and bowhead whales, support annual and seasonal net primary production, with varying impacts across space and time. While the annual effects are modest (<2%) in most areas, the greatest impacts (up to 10%) occur during summer stratification and in offshore areas far from other nutrient sources. These increases in primary production have cascading effects on the food web, driving rises in mesozooplankton biomass. This study highlights the ecological significance of nutrient cycling by whales and underscores the value of integrating whale nutrient data into ecosystem modeling to assess the broader impacts of whales on marine productivity.},

abstract = {Invasions by non-indigenous species (NIS) are among the major problems that coastal ecosystems are facing globally and are driven by anthropogenic activities, such as international vessel traffic and aquaculture. Bryozoans are typical constituents of vessel hull-fouling communities, and the phylum contains several notorious globally invasive species. Few NIS, including bryozoan species, are reported along the Chilean Southeast Pacific coast, which has traditionally been attributed to the local oceanographic and ecologic conditions. However, the low numbers may also be the consequence of insufficient monitoring, as well as the small size and morphologic similarity of many species, which hinders their detection. Here, we deployed artificial floating settlement plates in strategic locations (ports/marinas or aquaculture sites) along the Chilean coast (from 29°S to 41°S), to detect non-indigenous bryozoans. With this method, we found a total of 14 species, including five NIS and four cryptogenic species. Additionally, we report two NIS from opportunistic findings in the rocky intertidal zone and from a piece of plastic litter. Three species represent new records from Chile: Bugulina cf. fulva, Bugulina stolonifera, and Watersipora arcuata. These are described in detail in the present paper. The new records importantly enhance the number of known (bryozoan) invasions along the Chilean coast and corroborate the need for regular monitoring. The installation of artificial settlement plates at high-risk sites (especially ports and marinas) has proven to be a successful and efficient low-cost approach, which can help to detect NIS introductions in their early stages, before spreading to natural environments. Regular monitoring of these sites, as well as compulsory legislation for hull cleaning, both for long-distance (nationally and internationally) travelling and local vessels, could greatly reduce the problem.},

Some of these mesopelagic organisms are part of Deep Scattering Layers (DSLs) which are recognized as being among the largest biomass aggregations of the planet. Current quantitative estimates of this biomass vary by an order of magnitude and it is essential to improve monitoring methods in the face of emerging initiatives to exploit this key ecological resource. In this study, we employ a combination of passive and active acoustic datasets to describe concurrent temporal patterns of DSL migration and changes of the soundscape off two volcanic islands of the subtropical NE Atlantic. We report a chorus centred at 2.5 kHz, matching those previously documented in the Pacific and Indian Oceans, and observed here for the first time in the North Atlantic. This chorus event coincides with the upward migration of organisms from deep scattering layers to surface waters. Furthermore, the maximum received sound levels of this chorus are positively correlated with the measured acoustic backscatter at 38 kHz of the DSL migrating to <150m depth. These results suggest that calibrated Passive Acoustic Monitoring (PAM) measures of chorus intensity could be applied globally as a cost-effective and powerful indicator of migrating organisms from DSLs, potentially reflecting biomass through their associated acoustic backscatter.},

In this study, we used carbon (δ13C) and nitrogen (δ15N) stable isotopes to identify the trophic position, isotopic niche size, foraging habitat, and potential sex-based differences in the dietary patterns of six odontocete species in the Madeira Archipelago: short-beaked common dolphin (Delphinus delphis), Atlantic spotted dolphin (Stenella frontalis), common bottlenose dolphin (Tursiops truncatus), false killer whale (Pseudorca crassidens), short-finned pilot whale (Globicephala macrorhynchus), and sperm whale (Physeter macrocephalus). Results delineated two distinct groups. The first (common dolphin, spotted dolphin, bottlenose dolphin) exhibited lower δ13C and δ15N values, lower trophic positions, and larger isotopic niches, indicating that these species are generalist predators and rely more on the pelagic food web. The second group (false killer whale, short-finned pilot whale, sperm whale) displayed higher isotopic values and trophic positions, with smaller isotopic niches, relying more on shallow-to-deep mix food webs and displaying a more specialist diet. This distinction was further supported by comparisons with stable isotope values of potential prey species. However, for deep-diving species such as short-finned pilot whale and sperm whale, some prey species were not represented in the niche models due to lack of available samples. The isotopic niche overlap was highest for two pairs of species: spotted and bottlenose dolphin, probably related to their generalist diet and temporal co-occurrence; false killer whale and short-finned pilot whale, from which no interspecific competition is expected due to differing habitat preferences. No sex-related differences were found in the five species analyzed for either isotope. This study characterizes the trophic ecology of several oceanic odontocetes in the Eastern North Atlantic and establishes a valuable baseline for future research. Understanding the trophic interactions of these species offers important insights into their ecological roles and the dynamics of the marine ecosystem they inhabit.},

Detection frequencies were higher in pilot whales (60–100 %) than in sperm whales (30–50 %). This study provides the first evidence of UV-360 concentration in cetaceans. These findings suggest that pilot whales’ higher site fidelity in Madeiran waters may increase exposure to oUVF, while sperm whales may accumulate oUVFs through benthopelagic feeding at higher trophic levels. These results highlight the potential for oUVF to disperse into deep marine ecosystems and underscore the importance of monitoring emerging contaminants in oceanic apex predators.},

abstract = {Correlative species distribution models (SDMs) are quantitative tools in biogeography and macroecology. Building upon the ecological niche concept, they correlate environmental covariates to species presence to model habitat suitability and predict species distributions. Since their development, SDMs have undergone substantial advances in their predictive accuracy, benefiting from increased data availability, advanced machine learning algorithms, novel data integration procedures, refined model validation techniques, and incorporation of biotic predictors. Although initially applied in terrestrial systems, these models are now also widely used in the marine environment, recognized for their value in conservation planning, fisheries management, and understanding species responses to climate variability and change. Despite their increased application, SDMs face unique challenges when applied in the marine environment. These challenges include the three-dimensional complexity of marine ecosystems, the availability of environmental covariates across suitable spatial and temporal scales, the dynamic properties of these covariates, and unique dispersal patterns and mobility traits of marine species. Here, we review recent methodological advances and emerging trends in marine SDMs. We highlight three-dimensional modelling approaches that capture species distributions below the sea surface and assess the importance of temporal resolution, particularly for modelling highly mobile marine species in dynamic marine environments. Further, we discuss the expansion in the types of occurrence data being used, including fishery-dependent and fishery-independent sources, citizen science contributions, and satellite tracking data, along with the methods used to address their associated biases. We also explore and discuss novel methodologies for environmental data collection, such as remote-sensing technologies and numeric ocean models, considering the existing limitations in spatial and temporal resolution. Together, our review synthesizes methodological innovations, highlights ongoing challenges, and discusses emerging trends within the extensive literature on marine SDMs.},

abstract = {Elasmobranch species are considered a global conservation priority due to their susceptibility to fishing pressure. In the Madeira Archipelago, Northeastern Atlantic, most elasmobranch species are caught as bycatch in artisanal drifting longline fishery targeting scabbardfishes. All commercial elasmobranch landings carried out in this archipelago over three decades (1990–2020) were analysed, aiming to provide a reliable overview of Madeira’s elasmobranch fisheries and their evolution. A total of 2316 tonnes of elasmobranchs were landed during the study period, corresponding to approximately EUR 2.1 million in first-sale value. The most representative period occurred from 2003 to 2013, corresponding to 75.21% of the total elasmobranch landings. A general pattern of supply and demand was evident, with mean price values typically showing an inverse trend to landed tonnage. At the species level, Centrophorus squamosus appears as the dominant species, representing about 89% of the total elasmobranch species landed, followed by Prionace glauca, with approximately 3%. The high dominance of C. squamosus in the scabbardfish fishery raises significant ecological and management concerns, as this deep-water shark species is known for its vulnerability to overexploitation. Management measures currently in place need to be updated and ought to be based on studies on the type and size of hooks for each fishery, to ultimately infer about species-specific survival rates, as well as the fishing gears’ soak time. Moreover, studies on the enhancement of food supply through fisheries discards are still missing, even though it is highly likely that this input may alter the dynamics of marine food webs.},

These microplastics can adsorb on their superficies other hydrophobic organic chemicals surrounding and act as vectors for the transport of these contaminants and transfer to organisms. This study presents the first coordinated comprehensive three-year spatial-temporal assessment of the occurrence and distribution of emerging contaminants adsorbed on microplastic debris collected from 32 beaches across of Macaronesia (Canary Islands, Madeira, Azores, and Cabo Verde). Two types of microplastic debris (pellets and fragments) were analysed for 34 contaminants using previously established analytical procedures. These included twelve UV filters (UVFs) and UV stabilizers (UVSs) commonly added to personal care products; thirteen steroid hormones and nine pharmaceutical compounds. Concentrations were typically in the nanograms per gram range, obtaining highest concentrations for UV compounds, followed by hormones and, in much lower concentration, pharmaceuticals, possibly due to their hydrophilic nature. The most frequently detected compounds of each family were octocrylene (UVFs), levonorgestrel (hormones) and caffeine (pharmaceuticals) found in 69.12 %, 36.65 % and 29.89 % of the samples, respectively. This study presents a unique multi-archipelago dataset revealing unexpected contamination patterns including significant high concentrations of UV compound even on uninhabited and protected beaches such as Achados Beach (Santa Luzia, Cabo Verde), suggesting the influence of long-range oceanic transport. The findings underscore the ecological risks posed by key pollutants like octocrylene associated with plastics in insular ecosystems. This baseline data is crucial to inform mitigation strategies, including the regulation of UV filters in coastal and marine environments.},

abstract = {Accurate species identification is crucial for effective fisheries management, particularly for cryptic species with overlapping ranges and similar morphologies. This study explores the coexistence and distribution of Aphanopus carbo and Aphanopus intermedius in the northeastern Atlantic over four decades using otolith contour analysis. Otolith samples were collected from Madeira and the African coast between 1990 and 2021 and analyzed using a wavelet-based method, which improves species discrimination by capturing finer morphological details. The analysis revealed stable species proportions over time, with A. carbo generally dominating the catches (~55–60%), except in 2010 when a decline was observed. A higher presence of A. intermedius in offshore areas may be associated with increased salinity near Madeira Island during the spawning season (October–December). Environmental changes, including variations in temperature and salinity at depths greater than 800 m, and the progressive expansion of the drifting longline fishery to new grounds, likely influenced these patterns. This study demonstrates that combining otolith contour analysis with genetically identified reference specimens enhances species discrimination and provides valuable insights into population dynamics and habitat use. These findings contribute to more effective fisheries management and stock assessments for these economically important scabbardfish in the northeastern Atlantic.},

This study investigated the potential role of fish farm workers in monitoring marine biodiversity around aquaculture sites, comparing their potential involvement with that of other maritime workers. Interviews were conducted with maritime workers, including fish farm workers, in order to understand their perceptions of monk seal interactions with fish farms. The author also carried out direct data collection at fish farms to validate these perceptions. The results show a strong alignment between the workers’ perceptions and the data collected by the author on key parameters such as the presence, frequency, and seasonality of monk seals on fish farms. Furthermore, 75% of the 16 fish farm workers interviewed expressed no animosity toward monk seals. This underscores fish farm workers potential for involvement in monitoring initiatives and their understanding of monk seal interactions on fish farms. Given their constant presence at sea and proximity to key interaction zones, maritime workers are well-positioned to monitor environmental pressures and provide valuable data. With appropriate training, these workers could become valuable participants in targeted citizen science efforts, enhancing the public image of the aquaculture industry and advancing research on marine life in the vicinity of aquaculture installations.},

abstract = {ABSTRACT Limpet harvesting is a size-selective activity that primarily removes the largest individuals, leading to reduced reproductive output. This study investigates the fecundity strategies of two limpet species, Patella aspera and Patella crenata, inhabiting the rocky shores of Gran Canaria. Between September 2023 and April 2024, a total of 288 P. aspera and 364 P. crenata specimens were sampled from four coastal settlements. Both species exhibited determinate fecundity with synchronous spawning, as evidenced by the progression of dominant oocyte cohorts and the corresponding changes in oocyte size and number throughout the spawning season. Orientation and substrate type significantly influenced fecundity, with the North coast showing a higher number of vitellogenic oocytes, particularly in artificial substrates for P. crenata. Natural substrates on the North coast were associated with larger vitellogenic oocytes. Additionally, sex proportions were significantly affected by substrate type, with natural substrates containing a higher proportion of females. In artificial substrates, P. crenata exhibited notably higher gonadosomatic index values. The analysis of the gonadosomatic index and oocyte dynamics highlights the adaptive strategies of these limpets to local environmental conditions, contributing to our understanding of reproductive ecology in intertidal habitats. This research not only enhances our understanding of reproductive dynamics in limpets under varying environmental conditions but also emphasizes the importance of habitat and seasonal factors in shaping fecundity strategies. Such studies are crucial for conservation efforts, as they provide essential insights into how environmental pressures and human activities, like harvesting, impact the reproductive success and sustainability of these commercial species.},

abstract = {The level of exposure and the degree of coastal urbanization are key environmental and human-related factors that significantly affect the spatial distribution of species in different environments. Intertidal species show morphological adaptations to these influences, but little research has been done on how shell shape varies due to the island effect, including factors like island orientation and substrate type. This study aims to analyze the dorsal shell phenotypic variability of the limpets Patella aspera and Patella crenata, in response to island orientation (North vs. East) and different substrate types (Natural: platform and rocks; Artificial: wave breakers), on the island of Gran Canaria, using geometric morphometric analysis. Our findings support the hypothesis that these limpet species exhibit phenotypic plasticity in response to wave exposure influenced by island orientation and coastal artificialization. Oval shapes with wider and flattened shells, displaying greater shell lengths, on waveswept shores may be explained by the need for a larger foot to ensure attachment to substrate, thereby increasing resistance to dislodgement by wave action. In contrast, more rounded shapes with taller and narrower shells in sheltered environments can accommodate a smaller foot as an adaptation against thermal and desiccation stress. The substrate plays a secondary role in influencing the shell morphology, as slight variations were observed between natural and artificial substrates, particularly in body size, regardless of wave exposure. This phenotypic plasticity may lead to spatial segregation, enabling the species to exploit diverse habitats and reduce intraspecific and interspecific competition. The present study emphasizes the need to conserve intertidal species, particularly along the northern coast of Gran Canaria, by accounting for local responses, implementing targeted monitoring and protection efforts, and preserving the diverse phenotypic traits and plasticity of limpets on both protected and full-access shores amidst coastal sprawl and anthropogenic global change.},

Filtered and UV-treated seawater without any inducer was used as a negative control and natural crustose coralline algae (CCA) and cultured biofilms of the benthic diatom Navicula salinicola as positive controls. Neither GABA, IBMX, nor KCl induced settlement. IBMX promoted larval pedal exploration. Acetylcholine at concentrations above 10−3 M induced the onset of metamorphosis (velar abscission) with an efficiency similar to that of coralline algae, but the proportion of individuals completing metamorphosis was similar to the negative control. Coralline algae positive controls offered more consistent and higher settlement rates than biofilms of the diatom N. salinicola. The present results suggest that limpet larvae respond to a limited spectrum of settlement cues. Further research is required to elucidate the importance of acetylcholine on the physiology of metamorphosis in limpets.},

Traditional drift and drop cameras are typically tethered to the surface, causing cable and line clutter on sea vessels. At the same time, landers rely on auto-release mechanisms that use costly acoustic signals or inaccurate galvanic reactions. We introduce a reusable, novel, and low-cost Multipurpose Auto-Release System, a versatile and programmable solution for diverse payloads and applications in shallow and mesophotic waters. Building on existing drop-cam and Baited Remote Underwater Video System techniques, we enhance them with natural ballasts and an electronically controlled timed-release mechanism, which is programmed via a smartphone app using Near Field Communication. Our technique allows tetherless retrieval from small sea vessels at the sea surface. This innovation simplifies aquatic monitoring logistics by eliminating the need for surface buoys or equipment retrieval from the seabed during each deployment. Our approach also advances benthic and deep-sea marine biodiversity assessments by enabling easy systems deployment and recapture without pingers. We validated the system through 10 seawater tests, reaching depths of 278 m, accumulating 6 h of submerged data collection, and 17 d during continuous water immersion. We provide a detailed guide for building this robust, reusable, user-friendly tool for diverse aquatic monitoring assessments. Additionally, we share key lessons learned, paving the way toward more democratized, customizable, and widely accessible applications capable of reaching the deepest seas.},

abstract = {Limpets are a fishery resource with potential as new aquaculture species. Currently, there are no known methods for estimating the broodstock and gamete quality, resulting in a lack of predictability of hatching success. This study was designed to evaluate different morphometric traits as predictors of fertility and hatching success in the limpet Patella aspera Röding, 1798.Individual measurements were taken for adult body morphometry (129 females), gonad morphometry (129 females), and oocyte morphometry (79 females). The oocytes of individual females (80 females) were treated (control and alkaline bath) to enhance hatching success. The ratio of viable larvae was used as a proxy of quality. Statistical analyses included Pearson’s correlations, linear regression models, two-sample t-tests, and principal components analysis.The total number of oocytes was positively correlated with the female length and gonadal maturation indices (Orton’s maturation index and the gonadosomatic index). Oocyte shape changed from polyhedral to spherical 3 h after extraction. The alkaline bath increased the ratio of viable larvae in 87.5% of the females. The ratio of viable larvae was negatively correlated with oocyte size and chorion presence and positively correlated with oocyte sphericity.Three selection traits are proposed: (1) female length (live specimens) and (2) mature gonads (stripping) for obtaining higher quantities of oocytes and (3) sphericity of oocytes (once stripped) to determine their quality. The alkaline bath will be required to improve hatching success.The total number of oocytes in limpets increased with female size and gonad maturation stage. Oocyte quality was correlated with oocyte sphericity. An alkaline bath was required for improving hatching success.},

abstract = {The Eleventh International Conference on Marine Bioinvasions (ICMB-XI), held May 15–19, 2023, in Baltimore, Maryland, USA, convened 213 attendees from 24 countries to discuss the challenges and advancements in managing marine non-indigenous species (NIS). The conference emphasized the urgent need for international collaboration to address the increasing threats posed by marine bioinvasions, which transcend geopolitical boundaries. Participants explored six key themes through 119 oral presentations, 37 posters, and six keynote speakers, providing a platform for researchers, policymakers, and industry professionals to exchange knowledge and strategies. Notably, ICMB-XI implemented the first Code of Conduct for the Society for the Study of Marine Bioinvasions, promoting inclusivity and ethical scientific discourse. Here, we review articles published in Aquatic Invasions and Management of Biological Invasions based on research presented at ICMB-XI. Studies highlighted novel findings on species settlement dynamics, NIS ecological impacts, and advancements in detection methods such as environmental DNA monitoring. Research also examined the role of climate change in facilitating NIS, the influence of biofouling on NIS establishment, and the expansion of NIS into new ecological niches. Beyond scientific discussions, ICMB-XI celebrated the intersection of art and science through a collaboration with artist April Flanders, whose work communicated the impacts of marine invasions to broader audiences. The conference also provided travel awards and student achievement prizes to support early-career scientists. As ICMB-XI concluded, participants reinforced the need for sustained, large-scale efforts to mitigate marine bioinvasions through enhanced research, policy integration, and cross-sector collaboration. The next ICMB, scheduled for 2025 in Madeira, Portugal, aims to continue advancing the field and fostering international partnerships in marine bioinvasion management.},

abstract = {ABSTRACT Background Rafting of organisms on floating objects, long recognised as a key process in biogeography and evolution, has undergone tremendous change with the rapid increase of ocean litter (plastics and other human-made materials). Resulting increases in raft longevity and abundance expand opportunities for marine species' dispersal. Here, we present a conceptual framework for the role of benthic stopovers by artificial rafts and how these likely enhance cumulative species acquisition and dispersal. Stages of Benthic Stopovers We define four stages of benthic stopovers: (1) landing (horizontal transport) or sinking (vertical transport), (2) retention in the benthic habitat (intertidal or subtidal), (3) colonisation by local species, and (4) re-washing (horizontal transport) or re-surfacing (vertical transport). Colonisation and Dispersal From Stopovers The fate of floating items and their attached biota depends on the interplay of local (site-related), regional (oceanographic/climatic) and object characteristics. Available literature suggests that stopover events on shores (horizontal transport) are most likely to happen in complex natural environments like mangrove forests or rocky shores. These can trap and retain litter in the inter- and subtidal zone, with access to suitable rafting species. Large and highly buoyant items, with rigid surfaces resistant to breakage, are most likely to complete stopovers. Conclusions Stopovers can enhance colonisation and dispersal of biota by increasing both the species pool and frequency of dispersal events by litter rafts. We suggest stopovers are far more common than currently reported and play an increasing role in range dynamics, calling for innovative research to address this knowledge gap.},

This phenomenon provided a rare opportunity to investigate their epibiont assemblages. Offshore algal samples were collected around São Miguel (Azores) and Madeira islands in February 2024. Sargassum fluitans III and S. natans VIII were the dominant species, supporting diverse communities of bryozoans, hydroids, crustaceans, and molluscs. A total of 15 motile and 10 sessile epibiotic species were identified. Epibiotic assemblages differed significantly in species abundance and composition between the two archipelagos, suggesting the influence of distinct local environmental conditions and ocean currents, ultimately affecting which species thrive in each location. Notably, S. fluitans III, typically the dominant morphotype linked to the Great Atlantic Sargassum Belt (GASB), was most prevalent, suggesting that the influxes in the Azores and Madeira may have originated from this region rather than the Sargasso Sea. However, the timing of sightings, the lack of known direct currents connecting GASB to both archipelagos and the proximity of the Sargasso Sea, indicate that the exact origin remains debatable. This study provides a novel geographic perspective for examining the structure and composition of epibiont communities associated with rafting Sargassum.},

However, this freedom also presents challenges due to the interplay between components within an IoT design, which can influence the overall utility and performance of the prototype. Optimizing these designs is difficult due to limited means of estimating their efficacy. To address this, we introduce TOAD, a novel tool for profiling IoT prototypes and gauging their performance impact. TOAD uses thermal imaging and video analysis to extract and compare design performance characteristics. Unlike existing solutions that only profile overall performance, our tool assesses component interactions and overall design effects. It offers an affordable, non-intrusive method without needing device access or code instrumentation. Extensive benchmarks show TOAD accurately extracts performance data, aiding in selecting the best design for IoT applications. Additionally, it provides insights into how casing factors like thickness and material influence thermal behavior and performance. We demonstrate practical applications by optimizing offloading decisions based on thermal behavior, highlighting casing impacts on design performance. TOAD paves the way for efficient IoT prototype designs, offering a better understanding of component interactions and significantly enhancing the utility of custom IoT designs and its effectiveness.},

abstract = {Marine debris (MD) can be a transport vector for diverse marine communities, including non-indigenous species (NIS). This study assessed MD potential role as a substrate for colonization and dispersal vector for NIS in the Madeira Archipelago (NE Atlantic) by examining three MD categories: floating (FMD), seafloor (SMD), and beached (BMD). Opportunistic sampling, conducted in collaboration with local maritime stakeholders, documented MD sightings with photographs and GPS coordinates. A total of 92 MD items were inspected, revealing 108 fouling species across 11 phyla, with 13 % identified as NIS. SMD exhibited the highest proportion of NIS (9.6 %), followed by BMD (4.4 %) and FMD (3.9 %). Notably, the study provides evidence that FMD functions as both a substrate and a dispersal vector for NIS in Madeira waters. Combining biogeographic analyses, oceanographic modelling, and MD identification marks, this study highlighted the North Atlantic Subtropical Gyre's currents as key pathways, transporting MD items from the Wider Caribbean, the North American east coast, and the Iberian Peninsula to Madeira within 2–3 years. These findings emphasize Madeira's dual role as both a recipient and exporter of MD, with implications for NIS introductions and secondary spread. This study underscores the urgent need for standardized monitoring, stakeholder engagement, and proactive MD management strategies to mitigate NIS introductions and protect sensitive marine ecosystems like Macaronesia from the ecological risks of biological invasions.},

abstract = {ABSTRACT Identifying biogeographical patterns and important biological (blue) corridors can greatly contribute to conservation planning. Yet, this is particularly challenging when addressing pelagic species. In this study, satellite telemetry and photographic-identification data of short-finned pilot whales (Globicephala macrorhynchus) were used to identify preferred areas and pathways in the Macaronesia biogeographical region, namely between Madeira and two regions in the Canary Islands, the Western (WCI, La Palma and El Hierro) and the Central (CCI, Tenerife and La Gomera). Home-range and time-varying move persistence analyses from tracking data of four whales that moved between both archipelagos over 578 days revealed preferred areas in Madeira and the WCI, new connectivity pathways and the importance of both regions for area-restricted behaviours. These findings were corroborated by a high number (n = 71) of photographic matches between Madeira (catalogue of 1276 individuals) and the WCI (456 individuals), compared to only four between Madeira and the CCI (717 individuals). The high linkage of the WCI with Madeira and the CCI (n = 48) suggests that the WCI constitute a key habitat for potential mixing of pilot whales from different groups. This study emphasizes that a combined methodological approach provides robust baseline information for pilot whales' conservation management, which could be valuable for other scenarios and species. Furthermore, shown connectivity patterns contribute to broadening our knowledge on potential blue corridors in the eastern North Atlantic and highlight the importance of considering wide and international geographic areas for conservation planning of highly mobile marine species.},

This study reports on a bibliometric analysis that has identified the extent to which the topic has been explored in the international literature, by focusing on geographical scope, the emphasis on (micro)plastic litter and on policy measures. Additionally, as a complement to the assessment of the recent literature on marine plastic litter, this study reviews some case studies, identifying some trends on how to cope with this problem. The findings underscore the imperative for heightened research efforts in the context of marine littering. The literature reveals that unsustainable practices, the absence of robust policies and inadequate enforcement substantially contribute to the prevalence of marine plastic litter. Consequently, urgent action is essential, demanding the implementation of effective policies and frameworks. Encouraging nations to transition towards marine sustainability, particularly in terms of prevention and environmental awareness, is of paramount importance. To pave the way for a cleaner ocean for future generations, this study not only highlights the root causes but also offers suggested solutions. These solutions serve as valuable insights for researchers, innovators and policymakers worldwide, charting a course towards a more sustainable and litter-free marine environment.},

In its native habitat, the crab plays a crucial role in the ecosystem, but in invaded areas, it lacks natural predators. This has led to rapid expansion, highlighting the need to monitor and understand biological interactions with the native community. This study reports, for the first time in the wild, the predation of the invasive blue crab by the common octopus, Octopus vulgaris, in the Mediterranean Sea. Three sequences (two videos and a photography series) recorded by two spearfisherman (observation 1 and 2) and a recreational SCUBA diver (observation 3) are described. This article highlights the importance of native predators in influencing the expansion or control of invasive species. Additionally, it showcases the capacity of a versatile predator (the octopus), to serve as an ally alongside the fishing strategy, suggesting a novel perspective for ecologically sustainable management, in a context of low native predators of the blue crab. The collaboration with citizen scientists proves crucial in expanding our understanding of predator–prey dynamics and ecological interactions, underlining the need for continued partnerships between researchers and society for effective invasive species management.},
