The median (solid line) and interquartile range between the first and third quartile (shaded area) of the mussels’ valve gape over time. The black vertical bars at the top of the panels indicate the timing of the sound pulses that were played back. The mussels responded to both the pulse train and single pulses and returned to pre-exposure baseline levels already during the pulse train or after the single pulse

Human pharmaceuticals represent a major challenge in natural environment. A better knowledge on their mechanisms of action and adverse effects on cellular pathways is fundamental to predict long-term consequences for marine wildlife. The FTIRI Imaging (FTIRI) spectroscopy represents a vibrational technique allowing to map specific areas of non-homo...
The potential presence of microplastics (MPs) in seafood products presents significant health concerns, demanding the adoption of standardized and validated methodologies. In this study, we introduce a validated method and an innovative technique for extracting MPs from mussels using an oxidizing agent, Corolase enzyme, and a surfactant, thus elimi...
Mussels (Mytilus spp.) are abundant in the North Atlantic, sessile, and sensitive to environmental change, and suitable as sentinels of environment and climate change of costal ecosystems. We aimed to determine the baseline for the Northeast Atlantic (58–70°N) Mytilus species complex, and to show the present distribution to surveys conducted 60 yea...
A growing body of theoretical studies and laboratory experiments has focused attention on reciprocal feedbacks between ecological and evolutionary processes. However, uncertainty remains about whether such eco‐evolutionary feedbacks have an important or negligible influence on natural communities. Thus, recent discussions call for field experiments...
The Stormwater Action Monitoring (SAM) Status and Trends in Receiving Waters program conducts monitoring in Puget Sound nearshore marine waters to provide a regional assessment of whether collective stormwater management actions are leading to improved receiving water conditions. The SAM Puget Sound Nearshore Mussel Monitoring studies focuses on th...
