Tiny Beach-dwelling Crustaceans Big-time Sand Movers, Shaping California Coast (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Stand on the damp sand on a California beach and chances are you’re standing on top of an active earthworks site. Sand hoppers (Megalorchestia spp.), the tiny, shrimp-like creatures commonly found eating away at kelp on the shore, have been found to move massive amounts of sand, excavating up to 50 kg (110 lbs.) of sand per meter of shoreline per day. “They have one of the highest rates of bioturbation of anything on the planet,” said UC Santa Barbara marine scientist David Hubbard, referring to

Read excerpt
Some of the most essential functions of the human body are performed by tiny subcellular structures called peroxisomes. These membrane-bound organelles are instrumental in a range of metabolic functions, including breaking down fatty acids, creating specialized fat molecules for nerves and brain cells, and neutralizing reactive oxygen species, with results that have effects across many bodily systems. For UC Santa Barbara biologist Brooke Gardner, peroxisomes — more specifically their membranes
Disturbance Has Greater Effect on Giant Kelp Productivity Than Resource Availability (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Marine scientists at UC Santa Barbara have found that disturbances to giant kelp forests have a major influence on their net primary productivity (NPP) — an indicator of an ecosystem’s health and its ability to support its community — even more so than the availability of the resources it needs to grow. Taking data from decades of monthly measurements in the kelp forests of the campus’s National Science Foundation-supported Santa Barbara Coastal Long Term Ecological Research (SBC LTER) site, the
