This unique embayment is home to the world’s largest population of stromatolites, globally significant seagrass beds, and is protected from fishing, yet little is known of its fish assemblages. Baited remote underwater stereo-video systems (stereo-BRUVs) were deployed within Hamelin Pool four times over six years (2016, 2018, 2020 and 2022) and across four habitat types (low relief stromatolites (LRS), high relief stromatolites (HRS), sand and seagrass). We aimed to assess the fish assemblages and examine temporal differences in the structure and size classes in relation to changing habitats. A total of 44,649 fish from 79 species (46 Families) were recorded from 624 stereo-BRUVs deployments. Three species dominated the fish assemblage accounting for 60% of all fish recorded (<em>Atherinidae</em> spp 21%, <em>Helotes octolineatus</em> 20%, <em>Pentapodus vitta</em> 18%). The majority of fishes were either generalist invertebrate feeders (40%) or generalist carnivores (29%). Fish assemblage structure differed among years, habitats and site, although ‘year’ had minimal influence on the assemblage variation (2%) compared to ‘habitat’ (14%) and ‘site’ (26%). Across all four sampling years, the abundance and number of species of fish was consistently greatest within seagrass habitats, with the composition of these assemblages accounting for 65% of the variation between habitats. The commercially valuable <em>Chrysophrys auratus</em> showed evidence of growth to reproductive size and therefore may act as a potential source of larvae. Despite being a habitat suboptimal for many species, Hamelin Pool’s fish assemblages are stable in terms of their abundance and diversity. However, there are significant differences in the composition of assemblages between habitats, as well as variations in size distributions, suggesting this hypersaline environment supports fish growth and may facilitate replenishment of species fished in the wider Shark Bay area.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":50497,"journal":{"name":"Estuarine Coastal and Shelf Science","volume":"319 ","pages":"Article 109277"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2025-03-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143777065","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The Adriatic Sea has become a hub of <em>Pseudo-nitzschia</em> research over the past 15 years. This review synthesizes multidisciplinary research across Adriatic sub-basins, integrating morphological, genetic, and ecological data. While ASP has never been documented in the Adriatic, DA was occasionally detected in shellfish. The production was linked to toxic species such as <em>P. multistriata</em>, <em>P. calliantha</em>, and <em>P. galaxiae</em>, which were found to produce DA in cultures from Adriatic isolates. Despite progress, LM-based monitoring remains prevalent, underestimating species complexity and toxigenic potential. Electron microscopy and genetic barcoding have nonetheless revealed new insights into the species composition of this genus in Adriatic. A total of 14 species have been reported so far with prominent regional disparity: the northern and middle Adriatic host higher diversity, contrasting with the southern Adriatic, where only five species were confirmed, and research remains sparse. Seasonal dynamics show summer-autumn peaks in abundance, though interannual and regional variability is notable. We present recent advances from the Adriatic including the discovery of <em>Pseudo-nitzschia</em>-infecting viruses, population genomic insights in <em>P. multistriata</em>, and metabarcoding-driven revelations of cryptic diversity. Finally, we highlight critical knowledge gaps, including the ecological drivers of toxicity and the impacts of oligotrophication on community shifts.

Although satellite altimeters have proven to be a powerful tool for providing comprehensive and accurate sea level observations across the global ocean, their effectiveness is highly limited in coastal regions due to land interference. Classical harmonic analysis (CHA) model employs ordinary least square (OLS) to estimate tidal parameters from coastal satellite altimeter records, suffering from the problem of over-fitting when the number of unknown tidal parameters is comparable to or more than the number of valid observations. In this paper, two regularization methods (i.e. ridge and Lasso regression) are utilized to replace OLS in the CHA model to address the issue of over-fitting and the interleaved Topex/Poseidon-Jason1 series is analyzed with substantial missing values in Liaodong Bay, China. Practical experiments unequivocally demonstrate the superiority of Lasso regression to ridge regression and OLS. The spatially-averaged errors of OLS, ridge regression and Lasso regression are 5.43 cm, 3.99 cm and 2.84 cm, respectively. Moreover, tidal parameters obtained by OLS display significant unnatural spatial discontinuities along the satellite track, which are substantially diminished by Lasso regression. It is noteworthy that tidal constituents with small amplitudes obtained by Lasso regression may be unreliable due to residual over-fitting. Overall, CHA with Lasso regression is a method that can be widely applied to analyze various types of sea level records with substantial missing values in shallow bays.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":50497,"journal":{"name":"Estuarine Coastal and Shelf Science","volume":"319 ","pages":"Article 109280"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2025-03-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143746950","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The flow structures of a strait and the water bodies they are connected to are highly dependent on meteorological and hydrological conditions and change significantly as a result of extreme events in these conditions. The present study examines long-term variability in extreme meteorological and hydrological forcing conditions that control the hydrodynamic behavior of a sea strait, the Bosphorus, using 80-year (1931–2010) discharge data of the Danube River and 42-year (1979–2020) meteorological data. In addition to long-term trend analysis, extreme value analysis (EVA) was applied to both the maximum and minimum values of both parameters. In the Danube River discharges, trend directions have changed in successive 20-year periods from 1931 to 2010, but most of the trends are not significant except for the last 20 years of records. Extreme value analysis results indicate that both extreme maximum and minimum discharges are about 10 % greater in recent years (1971–2010) compared with earlier years (1931–1970). The wind conditions in the strait are less variable compared with freshwater discharges. However, the storm analysis indicates the occurrence of more energetic and short-lived storms in the Bosphorus in recent years with greater variability. The variation in extreme pressure differences is more notable, especially in the recent 20-year period. A 37 % decrease in minimum pressure difference, which means higher pressures at the southern entrance of the Bosphorus, indicates that extreme northward current events in the Bosphorus have decreased in recent years. This, combined with the increasing extreme river discharges, indicates a higher dominance of the brackish Black Sea water both in the hydrodynamics of the strait and the Sea of Marmara-northern Aegean Sea system in the future.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":50497,"journal":{"name":"Estuarine Coastal and Shelf Science","volume":"319 ","pages":"Article 109265"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2025-03-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143767945","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These “systems of systems” commonly host large, culturally diverse populations, major industries, transportation hubs, and academic or government research establishments. As such, Urban Sea Systems have become crucial hubs in our global/regional supply chain networks providing goods, jobs, and markets for most nations. Yet, owing to the declining quality of the runoff, the urban-suburban effluent, and the shipping-transport activities, these marine sectors have become some of the most polluted and anthropogenically impacted places on earth. Given that there are more than 200 such systems, in the ensemble, they may well be the most intense “hot spots” of human impacts on our combined ocean-atmosphere system.</div><div>Balancing the strengths and shortcomings of complex Urbans Sea Systems must begin with insightful interaction of many stakeholder expectations. Long-term responsible stewardship will require bold, next generation approaches to managing such complex systems. As an early step toward those solutions, we outline below a preliminary characterization of Urban Seas. We focus herein on three distinctly different systems: 1) The <strong>Salish Sea</strong>, located on the west coast of the North America, extends across the Canadian-U.S. border and is adjacent to an active convergent plate boundary; 2) The <strong>Chesapeake Bay</strong> on the Atlantic coast of North America is located along a passive continental margin with six states sharing jurisdiction over its watershed-maritime sectors; and 3) The Island of <strong>Oahu</strong> Hawaii, a passive intra-plate island example of an Urban Sea System.</div><div>In our characterization, we seek to assemble a viable rubric to enhance discussions of many different types of these systems. Although each Urban Sea System is unique, many experience similar challenges and stresses. The Salish, Chesapeake, and Oahu systems differ considerably, therefore characterizing the similarities and différences can offer enhanced insights to many such systems. The threat of hazards, like volcanism, earthquakes, tsunamis, mass wasting, floods, wild-fires, sea level rise along with major storm events, and land subsidence can inform deliberations about many systems.
