Background: Zostera marina is an important ecosystem engineer influencing shallow water environments and possibly shaping the microbiota in surrounding sediments and water. Z. marina is typically found in marine systems, but it can also proliferate under brackish conditions.

Within Polynoidae, a diverse aphroditiform family, the subfamily Macellicephalinae comprises anchialine cave-dwelling and deep-sea scaleworms. In this study, Lepidonotopodinae is synonymized with Macellicephalinae, and the tribe Lepidonotopodini is applied to a well-supported clade inhabiting deep-sea chemosynthetic-based ecosystems. Newly sequenced "genome skimming" data for 30 deep-sea polynoids and the comparatively shallow living is used to bioinformatically assemble their mitogenomes.

Amphipods are known as umbrella species in conservation biology that their protection indirectly protects other species. Recent hypotheses suggest a bimodal latitudinal global species richness pattern for amphipods, irrespective of species' depth or habitat type. Phylogeographic hypotheses suggested two distinct procedures for amphipod diversification: ecological radiation and Pangea fragmentation.

Distributed acoustic sensing (DAS), converting fiber-optic cables into dense acoustic sensors, is a promising technology that offers a cost-effective and scalable solution for long-term, high-resolution studies in ocean acoustics. In this paper, the telecommunication cable of Martha's Vineyard Coastal Observatory (MVCO) is used to explore the feasibility of cable localization and shallow-water sound propagation with a mobile acoustic source. The MVCO DAS array records coherent, high-quality acoustic signals in the frequency band of 105-160 Hz, and a two-step inversion method is used to improve the location accuracy of DAS channels, reducing the location uncertainty to ∼2 m.
