Summary: The aquaculture industry continues to face challenges such as infectious diseases and deteriorating water quality, with vibriosis being a common threat. Probiotics, prebiotics, and synbiotics have emerged as effective alternatives to antibiotics in enhancing fish immunity and reducing mortality from vibriosis, contributing to the sustainability and welfare of farmed fish.

Summary: Currently, many cities are dealing with serious water resource issues caused by urbanization. Remote sensing and geostatistics have been widely used in urban water resource monitoring with the advancements in technology. The aim of this study is to review the application of remote sensing and geostatistics in monitoring urban water resources and discuss their further development. The research methods involve bibliometric analysis of existing literature in this field, and exploration of the use of remote sensing and geostatistics in improving urban water resource monitoring capacity. The study concludes that remote sensing and geostatistics can greatly enhance the monitoring capacity of urban water resources, leading to more efficient utilization.

Summary: Recreational beaches in the Moroccan Mediterranean are the most polluted areas, which is related to the number of visitors on urban beaches. The significant influx of face masks onto beaches could lead to a drastic increase in microplastic pollution in the Moroccan Mediterranean in the coming years.

Summary: The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has led to a new form of plastic pollution, particularly in the form of microplastics released from face masks. The degradation and consequences of these microplastics in the environment are not well understood due to a lack of in situ degradation experiments and ecotoxicological studies.

Summary: Plastic production and waste have had a significant impact on the global economy and environment. Recycling and the circular economy are seen as solutions, but more technology and design measures are needed to reduce waste. Additionally, a legally binding global governance arrangement is necessary to limit and control plastic pollution.

Summary: Ocean governance is complex and influenced by multiple drivers, including formal rules, evidence-based decision-making, legitimacy, stakeholder engagement, and community empowerment. Major risks include resource overexploitation, inequitable distribution of benefits, and inadequate adaptation to changing conditions. The future of ocean governance can vary between 'Business as Usual' and a 'More Sustainable Future', with structured actions needed to move towards the latter.

Summary: Climatic extremes, particularly marine heatwaves (MHWs), have become more frequent and intense due to global warming, impacting the integrity of marine ecosystems. This review explores the impacts of MHWs on individual, population, and community levels, as well as the broader ecosystem services. It also discusses current research on biological impacts, approaches to predicting and adapting to future events.

Summary: Due to the high incidence of fish and shrimp diseases, the use of immunomodulators in aquaculture has become a pressing need. This literature review focuses on the application of fucoidan (FCD), a bioactive sulfated polysaccharide found in brown seaweeds, in aquaculture. Studies have shown that FCD has beneficial effects on the growth, intestinal health, antioxidant capacity, and immune responses of various finfish and shellfish species. It also shows potential in modulating toxicity signs and increasing the resistance of fish and shrimp against bacterial and viral infections.

Summary: Biological invasions have significant negative impacts on marine Mediterranean ecosystems, biodiversity, and human health. This study reviewed the impacts of marine biological invasions in the Mediterranean Sea and identified 103 alien and cryptogenic species with both negative and positive effects. The main mechanisms of negative effects were competition for resources, ecosystem engineering, and predation. Positive impacts were more common than negative impacts on ecosystem services, while only negative impacts were recorded for human health. There was significant variation among Mediterranean ecoregions in terms of impact mechanisms and the taxonomic identity of impacting species. The magnitude of impact did not appear to increase with residence time. Holistic approaches and experimental research are crucial for understanding and managing biological invasions.
