The Messinian (Late Miocene) coral reefs in the Cabo de Gata-Níjar UNESCO Global Geopark by Juan Braga, Jose Martin, Gloria Garcia-Hoyo, Lucia Tejero-Trueque

“…These low-diversity reefs are the last zooxanthellate coral reefs in the Mediterranean basin and constitute the endpoint of decreasing coral diversity in the region during the Miocene due to disconnection from the Indian Ocean and global cooling. The good exposures and accessibility of these reefs in the arid landscape of the Geopark make them valuable sites for practical training in geology and paleontology at different levels and reference sites for geotourism.…”

Seabird nutrient subsidy alters size and resource use of functionally important mangrove macroinvertebrates by Jennifer Appoo, Nicholas A. J. Graham, Christopher W. Jones, Sébastien Jaquemet, Nancy Bunbury

“…Here, we examine how mangrove macroinvertebrates are impacted by nutrient‐rich guano delivered by nesting seabird populations at Aldabra Atoll in the Indian Ocean. We compare nitrogen and carbon stable isotope ratios and nitrogen composition of basal resources and macroinvertebrate consumers in mangroves with and without nesting seabirds. …”

Near-chromosome level genome assembly of devil firefish, Pterois miles by Kitsoulis, Christos V., Papadogiannis, Vasileios, Kristoffersen, Jon B., Kaitetzidou, Elisavet, Sterioti, Aspasia, Tsigenopoulos, Costas S., Manousaki, Tereza

“…Devil firefish (Pterois miles), a member of Scorpaenidae family, is one of the most successful marine non-native species, dominating around the world, that was rapidly spread into the Mediterranean Sea, through the Suez Canal, originating from the Indian Ocean. Even though lionfishes (Scorpaenidae) are identified among the most prosperous marine invaders, within this taxonomic group, the genomic resources are scant, while reference genome assemblies are totally absent. …”

Analysis of Waves in the Oman Sea Using Numerical Software and Field Data by Homayun Kalantari, Kamran Lari, Afshin Mohseni Arasteh, Masoud Torabi Azad

“…By inferring from the simulation results and non-dimensional parameters of wave age and steepness, it can be concluded that the sea state and the wave climate are influenced by the waves caused by the northwest wind, monsoon, and the waves of the Indian Ocean. Wave steepness varied from 0.005 to 0.055 in different seasons such that discontinuity could be seen in the combined distribution of inverse wave age-wave steepness data in steepness of less than 0.01.…”

Climatic Background and Prediction of Boreal Winter PM2.5 Concentrations in Hubei Province, China by Yuanyue Huang, Zijun Tang, Zhengxuan Yuan, Qianqian Zhang

“…Conversely, the South Atlantic–Southwest Indian Ocean SST mode (SAIO) and the Ross Sea sea-ice mode (ROSIC) contribute to more stable local atmospheric conditions, which reduce pollutant dispersion and increase PM2.5 accumulation, thus exhibiting a positive correlation with DJF-HBPMC. (3) A multiple linear regression (MLR) model, using selected seasonal SST and SIC indices, effectively predicts DJF-HBPMC, showing high correlation coefficients (CORR) and anomaly sign consistency rates (AS) compared to real-time values. (4) In daily HBPMC forecasting, both the Reversed Unrestricted Mixed-Frequency Data Sampling (RU-MIDAS) and Reversed Restricted-MIDAS (RR-MIDAS) models exhibit superior skill using only monthly precipitation, and the RR-MIDAS offers the best balance in prediction accuracy and trend consistency when incorporating monthly precipitation along with monthly SST and SIC indices.…”
