Role of estuarine natural flocculation process in removal of Cu, Mn, Ni, Pb and Zn by S. Hassani, A.R. Karbassi, M. Ardestani

“…The flocculation of dissolved heavy metals is a process which has an important effect on decreasing the concentration of the colloidal elements during estuarine mixing of river water and sea or ocean water. During this important process, a large amount of colloidal elements change into particles in the form of flock and the dissolved loads decline. …”

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. …”
