Toxicity of the organic UV filter oxybenzone to the brown macroalga Hormosira banksii and the green macroalga Ulva lactuca Open
Oxybenzone (BP-3), a common sunscreen ingredient, has been detected in marine ecosystems and shown to be toxic to various marine species, raising environmental concerns. However, its effects on macroalgae remain largely unknown. This study…

eDNA metabarcoding reveals biodiversity and depth stratification patterns of dinoflagellate assemblages within the epipelagic zone of the western Coral Sea Open
Background Dinoflagellates play critical roles in the functioning of marine ecosystems but also may pose a hazard to human and ecosystem health by causing harmful algal blooms (HABs). The Coral Sea is a biodiversity hotspot, but its dinofl…
