Article Synopsis
  • Climate change is impacting marine environments by altering their average conditions and the variability over time, affecting the adaptability of different species.
  • A study on mussels in Chilean Patagonia found that changes in environmental conditions, including extreme events, influence their physical traits while genetic differences remain minimal due to significant mixing from aquaculture.
  • The research highlights the importance of variability and predictability in shaping biological diversity, suggesting that managing these factors is vital for species resilience and biodiversity conservation in the face of climate change.

Understanding local hydraulic conditions is imperative to coastal harmful algal bloom (HAB) monitoring. The research summarized herein describes how the locations and tidal phases selected for coastal hazard sampling can influence measurement results used to guide management decisions for HABs. Our study was conducted in Frenchman Bay, Maine, known for its complex deglaciated coastline, strong tidal influence, and shellfishing activities that are susceptible to problematic HABs such as those produced by some species (spp.
