Successive infections with Vibrio harveyi were conducted in two populations of the European abalone in order to examine which genes may be involved in improved survival to the disease in the St. Malo population.

Individuals from 5 populations were kept in common garden conditions in order to examine acclimation and adaptation to temperature in the honeycomb worm. Worms were exposed to 5 temperature treatments, and collected for RNAseq analysis. Gene expression patterns were then examined.

Ce jeu de données représente sous forme de polygones, les espaces situés à moins de 200m de terrains en nature de bois et forêt, appelés "zones exposées au risque feu de forêt", dont les paramètres sont précisés par l'article R133-5 du Code forestier. Ces zones sensibles au risque d'incendie de forêt comprennent les formations forestières ainsi que la zone périphérique de 200m de large les entourant. Sur cet ensemble s'applique une règlementation particulière afin d'y réduire le risque. Notamment concernant l'obligation légale de débroussaillement qui s'applique dans ces espaces, cette cartographie est annexée aux plan locaux d'urbanisme ou aux documents d'urbanisme en tenant lieu (article L134-15 du Code forestier).

In European sea bass like in other animals, the tongue plays a fundamental role in the mechanics of food ingestion. It is composed from the surface in depth of mucosa, submucosa, musculature and fibro cartilaginous skeleton. The tunica mucosa exhibits a stratified epithelium interrupted by numerous teeth differently distributed that erupt more or less completely from the layers below. The European sea bass tongue is composed of canine-like teeth, surrounded by taste buds and numerous fungiform and conical papillae. The tongue beeing directly in contact with external environment, the success of the adaptation of fishes to different environments in the context of global change, depends oamong other on the modifications occurring on the tongue structures. The present study investigates the potential effect of ocean acidification on the lingual transcriptome.

The dataset presents the potential combined effects of land-based pressures on marine species and habitats estimated using the method for assessment of cumulative effects, for the entire suite of pressures and a selected set of marine species groups and habitats by an index (Halpern et al. 2008). The spatial assessment of combined effects of multiple pressures informs of the risks of human activities on the marine ecosystem health. The methodology builds on the spatial layers of pressures and ecosystem components and on an estimate of ecosystem sensitivity through an expert questionnaire. The raster dataset consists of a division of the Europe's seas in 10km and 100 km grid cells, which values represents the combined effects index values for pressures caused by land-based human activities. The relative values indicate areas where the pressures potentially affect the marine ecosystem. This dataset underpins the findings and cartographic representations published in the report "Marine Messages" (EEA, 2020).

Rapport final ONF

La Région Nouvelle-Aquitaine accompagne les acteurs publics et privés dans leur transition énergétique et écologique à l'horizon 2030. Avec ses 11 ambitions, la feuille de route Néo Terra guide l'action régionale et celle de ses partenaires pour la mise en œuvre d'actions concrètes. Un engagement collectif pour la Nouvelle-Aquitaine de demain.

Here, our study aimed to first assess the influence of plastic on the bacterial community belonging to water, plastic and the microbiome of the giant clam and on the organism's physiology of this putative sentinel species. Our second objective was to identify bacteria whose abundance varies significantly with plastic concentration. Overall, this study will fill the gap towards a better understanding of the impact of plastic pollution on bacterial community assemblages in both inert and living environments.

Whole genome pooled sequencing of individuals from 4 populations and 3 different color phenotype in order to uncover the genetic variants linked to color expression in the pearl oyster P. margaritifera.

This dataset presents the resulting assessment grid (based on the EEA reference grid) with the classification of chemical status of the transitional, coastal and marine waters in the context of the Water Framework Directive (WFD) and the Marine Strategy Framework Directive (MSFD). This classification has been performed using the CHASE+ tool, with classifications of the matrices ‘water’, ‘sediment’ and ‘biota’ and indicators of ‘biological effects’, as well as an integrated classification of chemical status, combining results of all matrices. The chemical status is evaluated in five classes, where NPAhigh and NPAgood are recognised as ‘non-problem areas’ and PAmoderate, PApoor and PAbad are recognised as ‘problem areas’. This is the assessment made excluding concentrations of polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) The overall area of interest used is based on the marine regions and subregions under the Marine Strategy Framework Directive. Additionally, Norwegian (Barent Sea and Norwegian Sea) and Icelandic waters (’Iceland Sea’) have been added (see Surrounding seas of Europe). Note that within the North East Atlantic region only the subregions within EEZ boundaries (~200 nm) have been included. This dataset underpins the findings and cartographic representations published in the report "Contaminants in Europe's Seas" (EEA, 2019): https://www.eea.europa.eu/publications/contaminants-in-europes-seas.
