Recent advances in marine microbiology - a selection of critical evaluations of research papers
(University of Plymouth, 2009)
How effective can GSM signals, using DCM, be as an aid to coastal navigation?
(University of Plymouth, 2009)
The growth of the Global System for Mobile communications (GSM) network has been considerable in recent years, and coverage can be expected in the majority of larger ports around the world. Additionally, the positioning ...

Holocene sea-level changes in the Bristol Channel - Evidence from Porlock, Somerset, UK
(University of Plymouth, 2010)
The surface distribution and elevation of contemporary intertidal foraminifera can be used as modern analogues to reconstruct former sea levels based on fossil foraminifera assemblages. A transfer function for southwest ...
Effects of storm-induced sand scour on Patella vulgata off south-west Britain
(University of Plymouth, 2015)
This study investigates the impacts of storm-induced sand-scour on common limpets (Patella vulgata) off south-west Britain, focussing particularly on the physical impacts of this process, as well as shore recovery. Unusually ...
Beneficial roles of microorganisms in the coral reef ecosystem
(University of Plymouth, 2010)
Coral reef biodiversity has declined over the past few decades and despite recent
significant scientific interest in reefs in light of noticeable effects of climate change on
this fragile habitat there is still much ...
The role of the virus-phytoplankton system in marine biogeochemical cycling: possible impacts of climate change
(University of Plymouth, 2009)
The Role of Zooxanthellae in Marine Invertebrates
(University of Plymouth, 2008)
The importance of zooxanthellae in marine environments cannot be understated. Their role as a source of nutritive energy to corals underpins the success of reef-building systems worldwide, forming some of the most productive ...
Deep-Sea Coral Reefs: Distribution, Ecology and Anthropogenic Impacts
(University of Plymouth, 2009)
The introduction of Remotely Operated Vehicles (ROVs) and manned submersibles has meant
scientists can finally begin study deep-water scleractinian coral reefs, making valuable first-hand
observations of the reefs ...
The mechanisms of marine bacterial interactions
(University of Plymouth, 2010)
Bacteria are found in numerous habitats within the vast marine realm. Many
marine bacteria live together as a biofilm which allows them to closely interact
and intimately influence each other‟s lives, mainly by the ...
