Climate change and biodiversity loss can influence community structure via changes in trophic interactions. The effects of such stressors are variable, leading even to species extinction. However, there is a knowledge gap on the combined effects of those stressors in the community structure and ecosystemic processes. In this present proposal, by an experimental approach, we will evaluate …
The following solicitation was elaborated to promote the first partnership activities with Dr. Stefano Cannicci, which we had been discussing for months via email. Since our first contact, Dr. Cannicci has been showing his interest to develop scientific activities in collaboration with our research group and also strengthen the relationship between Brazilian institutions and Hong Kong. De…

Ornamental aquaculture is a sector that has been showing significant growth, being an activity that can contribute to reduce the pressure on wild stocks, species conservation and scientific research. In Brazil, population of the seahorse Hippocampus reidi have been declining due to environmental degradation and fishing pressure promoted by the ornamental trade. Considered the fifth most e…
The fiddler crabs are territorial animals, caves builders, which live in between tides areas. They were considered active only during low tide, however, some species are also actives during high tide. Besides the ecological relevance of the fiddler crabs, they are a significant part of the alimentation of some estuarine birds. Therefore, in this project, we will perform laboratory tests t…
The impact of climate change has been altering different environments over the decades and the marine environment is one of the main victims of this change. According to IPCC projections, the temperature increase could reach 4°C in a pessimistic scenario and ocean acidification tends to be intensified by -0.7 units by increasing the dissolution of CO2 in the water. Entire communities are …
Construction of sedimentary structures can be observed in the most diverse animal groups. In addition to playing an important role in the survival and evolution of the animals that produce them, they can also influence ecological processes in ecosystems such as the biogeochemical cycling of nutrients and the hydrodynamics of the environment. Fiddler crabs are organisms that build sediment…

Climate change has had a major impact on the marine environment over recent decades. Seawater temperature has increased rapidly and under the most pessimistic IPCC projections is set to increase much further by the end of the century (2100). Different climatic stressors can act together on ecosystems, negatively affecting the maintenance of communities of marine organisms. Early critical…
Marine coastal wetlands are considered Blue Carbon Ecosystems because of their high rates of carbon stocks in the sediment. Estuarine organisms manipulate the sediment matrix through their behavior activities and emit a significant amount of CO2 from sediment to the atmosphere, holding a key role in carbon cycling and climate change mitigation. The fiddler crab Leptuca thayeri is one of t…
Florida pompano (Trachinotus carolinus) is a highly prized species as a game and food fish, with a growing interest in marine finfish aquaculture. However, growth is one of the major problems found in this species. One way to stimulate fish growth is to increase feed intake using feeding stimulants and the action of these substances is more effective when it comes from the natural prey of…
Climate change already affects the marine environment. One of its main effects is the increase of open ocean and coastal water temperatures, which can disturb the stability of populations and communities in the medium and long term. In commercially exploited species, already under pressure due to direct anthropogenic action, climate change can exacerbate impacts to population dynamics, le…
