Overexploitation of natural resources and pollution of seas, acidification of the ocean, and rising temperatures all contribute to the destruction of marine habitats and, in 2015, the protection of the ocean became one of the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDG 14: Life Below Water). This collection aims to highlight the molecular genetic changes currently happening in marine organisms.

For many decades, the large part of developed countries has been experiencing the progressive ageing of their populations. This quantitative change is also accompanied by a qualitative shift in social representations of the . Within these changes, a fundamental role is played by the desire to experience opportunities for socializing, leisure, and culture that can shape a new and more complex concept of well-being.

Lakes play a vital role in supporting biodiversity, providing water resources, regulating climate, cycling nutrients, and offering recreational opportunities. Despite their importance for environmental health and human well-being, lakes face significant pressures in the Anthropocene era. The present work seeks to assess the species-environment interactions and the ecological status of six lakes in the Western Black Sea basin of Türkiye utilizing phytoplankton metrics during wet and dry periods.

Biomism, the pervasive prejudice, discrimination or antagonism against a given biome, highlights critical and overlooked dimensions of human behavior biases that have consequences for real-world conservation. Here, I propose seven ways to end biomism in educational, scientific and conservation arenas, including (1) the recognition and value of all biomes, (2) use of inclusive language that acknowledges diverse perspectives, (3) preventing research prioritization based on colonial legacies, (4) tailoring biome-specific conservation, management and restoration, (5) adapting legislation to embrace all biomes, (6) developing inclusive regulatory measures and (7) equalizing funding opportunities. Recognizing and addressing biases against specific biomes is essential for fostering a more inclusive and equitable approach to conservation arenas and abandoning long-standing prejudices rooted in colonial legacies, aesthetic preferences and utilitarian views of nature.

Marine protected and conserved areas (MPCAs) are promoted as an ecosystem-based adaptation (EbA) approach to increase community and ecosystem resilience to climate change. However, traditional approaches to MPCA design typically do not consider climate risk or habitat condition under a climate threat. We used the Great Sea Reef (GSR) in Fiji as a case study to develop a land-sea prioritization framework that links modeled sediment runoff from rainfall during extreme cyclone events to the probability of coral reefs being in good condition.

Ecomorphological traits impact how organisms function in their environment and are predictive of habitat use and niche. Studying ecomorphological variation in the context of strong environmental filtering can provide opportunities to understand the role of convergent evolution in forming trait-habitat use patterns.
