2019, 38(12): 35-42. doi: 10.1007/s13131-019-1363-0
Abstract:
Mid-ocean ridge basalts (MORBs) are characterized by large variations in trace element compositions and isotopic ratios, which are difficult to be interpreted solely by using magmatic process such as partial melting of a peridotitic mantle and subseq...

Abstract:
Iranian nesting populations of the critically endangered hawksbill turtle (Eretmochelys imbricate) are some of the most important in the Indian Ocean. In this study, four of the most important hawksbill nesting grounds in the Persian Gulf, situated w...
The effect of substrate grain size on burrowing ability and distribution characteristics of Perinereis aibuhitensis
Sun Tao, Liu Chun'e, Li Xingzuo, An Dongzhengyang, Yu Hairui, Ma Zheng, Liu Feng
2019, 38(12): 52-58. doi: 10.1007/s13131-019-1348-z
Abstract:
Perinereis aibuhitensis (Grube, 1878) lives in marine sediments of estuary or shoal areas, where substrate has some crucial environmental factors affecting its burrowing and distribution. In order to provide basic data for the habitat selection and s...
Zooneuston and zooplankton abundance and diversity in relation to spatial and nycthemeral variations in the Gulf of Aqaba and northern Red Sea
Mantha Gopikrishna, Al-Sofyani Abdulmohsin A., Ali M Al-Aidaroos, Crosby Michael P
2019, 38(12): 59-72. doi: 10.1007/s13131-019-1427-1
Abstract:
Zooplankton and zooneuston observations were made at seven stations (four from the Gulf of Aqaba and three from the northern Red Sea), during September and October 2016. The main objective of this study was to assess the variability of nycthemeral fa...
Family-level diversity of extracellular proteases of sedimentary bacteria from the South China Sea
