Sediment characteristics influence the fertilisation success of the corals Acropora tenuis and Acropora millepora.

Only registered users can translate articles

Elevated suspended sediment concentrations (SSCs) often impact coral fertilisation success, but sediment composition can influence effect thresholds, which is problematic for accurately predicting risk. Here, we derived concentration-response thresholds and cause-effect pathways for SSCs comprising

From conception to Covid-19: An arduous journey of tribulations of racism and triumphs

Only registered users can translate articles

The densely wooded 800-acre Madras Christian College (MCC) campus, India where I lived most of my early years, sparked my curiosity in plants. Observing the pitcher plant that captured insects, trees that produced fruits in the shape of a human skull, wild orchids, bright wildflowers, and dense

A Bioinspired Slippery Surface with Stable Lubricant Impregnation for Efficient Water Harvesting.

Only registered users can translate articles

Inspired by Nepenthes pitcher plants, slippery liquid-infused porous surfaces (SLIPS) have recently attracted increasing attention for directional transport and movement manipulation of water droplets. Nevertheless, infused lubricants are generally instable and easy to deviate from such surfaces

Effects of coal contamination on early life history processes of a reef-building coral, Acropora tenuis.

Only registered users can translate articles

Successful reproduction and larval dispersal are important for the persistence of marine invertebrate populations, and these early life history processes can be sensitive to marine pollution. Coal is emerging as a contaminant of interest due to the proximity of ports and shipping lanes to coral

Spatiotemporal genetic structure in a protected marine fish, the California Grunion (Leuresthes tenuis), and relatedness in the genus Leuresthes.

Only registered users can translate articles

The genus Leuresthes displays reproductive behavior unique among marine fish in which mature adults synchronously emerge completely out of the water to spawn on beach land. A limited number of sandy beaches, which are suitable for these spawning events, are present in discontinuous locations along

Effects of alumina refinery wastewater and signature metal constituents at the upper thermal tolerance of: 2. The early life stages of the coral Acropora tenuis.

Only registered users can translate articles

The success of early life history transitions of the coral Acropora tenuis were used as endpoints to evaluate thermal stress and the effects of wastewater discharged to a tropical marine environment. The studies assessed the effects of: (i) temperature; (ii) three signature metals of the wastewater,

Fabrication techniques for bioinspired, mechanically-durable, superliquiphobic surfaces for water, oil, and surfactant repellency.

Only registered users can translate articles

Nature provides inspiration for liquid-repellant and low-adhesive surfaces, such as the lotus leaf and pitcher plant. While water-repellency is frequently found in nature, oil-repellency and surfactant-repellency are uncommon to nonexistent. To obtain oil- and surfactant-repellency, hierarchical,

Suspended sediments limit coral sperm availability.

Only registered users can translate articles

Suspended sediment from dredging activities and natural resuspension events represent a risk to the reproductive processes of coral, and therefore the ongoing maintenance of reefal populations. To investigate the underlying mechanisms that could reduce the fertilisation success in turbid water, we
