Under climate change, these species could experience northward range shifts, expanding their range in United Kingdom (UK) coastal waters, potentially requiring the UK to take a leadership role in European seahorse conservation in the future. This review aims to synthesise current scientific research to provide an overview of how these seahorse species are likely to respond to climate change. Using the most recent Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Sixth Assessment Report (AR6), predictions for future change along with the likelihood and severity of seahorse species response are combined to provide a confidence ranking in the climate change risk for these species in the UK.

Floodplain restoration is increasingly regarded as one of the most successful forms of NBS. However, stream restoration projects lack in-depth monitoring practices, highlighting the need for evaluations of NBS restoration success on riparian vegetation. This study analysed patterns in plant species diversity and composition following restoration of the Bosscherveld floodplain, part of the Grensmaas Project, the largest nature-based river restoration project in the Netherlands. A total of 173 species were recorded over 325 quadrats. For each plot, hydro-geomorphological factors were analysed. Habitat type and water depth were key determinants of plant species distribution. Species richness significantly declined in relation to increasing hydrological stress, and vegetation was distributed according to species-specific tolerances to disturbance. Spatial coordinates, habitat type, sediment type, water percentage and depth all significantly contributed to differences in vegetation composition. Spatial variables emerged as the most significant contributors to the explained variation. The study concludes that the Bosscherveld floodplain displays high habitat heterogeneity and a significant presence of wetland species, aligning with initial restoration objectives.

Further, our evidence of significant population structure across geographically close populations highlights that conservation efforts relying on seagrass restoration would risk mixing unique evolutionary signatures of <i>Z. capensis</i> in the region when transplanting between estuaries.

This increased structural complexity due to the presence of rhodolith nodules is expected to influence benthic diversity at a local scale. To investigate this further, we tested the hypothesis that high-density rhodolith beds hold higher meiofaunal diversity than low-density beds. We used metabarcoding (V9 hypervariable region from 18S SSU rRNA) on sediment samples from a region with extensive rhodolith beds in the Eastern Brazil Marine Ecoregion, with distinct areas covered by high- and low-density beds. The sediment underneath high-density beds showed higher food availability (biopolymeric carbon) and organic matter quality (protein content and protein-to-carbohydrate ratio); however, meiofaunal composition and phylogenetic diversity was similar among all rhodolith beds sampled in the study area. Shannon's diversity was lower in high-density beds, which may be attributed to the higher organic matter content and quality supporting strong competitors, such as crustaceans and annelids that may dominate and suppress the presence of other meiofaunal taxa. Our results showed that rhodolith beds host a number of meiofaunal zoobenthos that are rarely sampled with traditional morphology-based methods, and we suggest that metabarcoding may become an important complementary method to study rhodolith beds globally. As assessing biodiversity is a prerequisite for any conservation measures, this study can provide insights when managing valuable marine habitats.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":55493,"journal":{"name":"Aquatic Conservation-Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems","volume":"34 12","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2024-12-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142861852","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In many countries, the creation of MPAs increased after the 2011 Aichi Targets, but in most cases, MPAs face significant operational and logistical challenges and suffer from important structural limitations that restrict their efficacy. Here, we use novel databases of taxonomic and functional diversity of 2125 coastal species (&lt; 30 m depth), habitat continuity and climate velocities to assess the efficacy of the existing MPAs located in the Tropical, Southern, Chilean and Magellan ecoregions of the Eastern Pacific (EP). We then use optimization models to locate new MPA sites that improve protection of geographic rarity and maximize their role as climate refugia while maintaining total area protected. Existing MPAs captured between 75% and 95% of species richness in all ecoregions, largely due to the large biogeographic ranges of most species, but under-represented rare endemic species, capturing between 3% and 66%, of single-occurrence species among ecoregions. In general, MPAs are located in areas of ‘moderate’ to ‘high’ functional diversity, representing relatively well this feature within ecoregions, but less effectively across all SEP. There is a large geographical mismatch between current MPA locations and regions that might act as ‘climatic refugia’, which threatens the long-term conservation value of existing MPAs. Our spatial optimization models provide valuable support for enhancing the effectiveness of MPAs, through complementation or relocation, improving their efficacy to conserve different aspects of biodiversity and resilience in the face of climate change in all ecoregions. Notably, these improvements do not necessitate expanding the total area under protection, underscoring that current MPA siting did not prioritize these criteria and suggesting that modifications may be socio-politically possible.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":55493,"journal":{"name":"Aquatic Conservation-Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems","volume":"34 12","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2024-12-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142851562","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Mussel restoration projects have emerged to combat these declines, with restoration methods primarily prioritizing mussel transplantations from healthy populations into degraded areas. While this technique can be effective, it is also costly and often infeasible to upscale. One alternative restoration technique is assisted juvenile recruitment through plantigrade or spat provision, which has facilitated the creation of mussel reefs on small scales. This study assessed the effectiveness of upscaled assisted recruitment of juvenile mussels, specifically using plantigrades attached to macroalgae experimentally placed into restored mussel reefs and adjacent bare cobble habitat. Ultimately, low natural settlement of plantigrades to macroalgae (eight plantigrades per gram macroalgae) and high post-settlement losses of plantigrades (&gt; 99%) resulted in assisted recruitment being unsuccessful as very few juvenile mussels small enough to have originated from the plantigrade provision (0.6 juveniles/m<sup>2</sup>) were found in either habitat. These results demonstrate two key barriers limiting the success of assisted recruitment as a restoration technique: highly variable natural settlement processes to macroalgae and low successful progression from post-settlement plantigrades to established juveniles due to mortality or emigration. Addressing these limitations will require assessing more reliable sources of plantigrades, such as hatcheries, and identifying the mechanisms currently impeding the transition of plantigrades to juvenile recruits.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":55493,"journal":{"name":"Aquatic Conservation-Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems","volume":"34 12","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2024-12-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142861853","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
