       'We have leveraged the rapid growth of satellite-tracked drifting fish-aggregating-devices used by the fishing industry to evaluate their potential as ocean observing systems. Ocean currents derived from fish-aggregating-devices were compared with those from the Australian Bureau of Meteorology’s global ocean forecast system and the Global Drifter Program in the Western Central Pacific Ocean. Using the Lagrangian modeling framework OceanPARCELS, we assessed the model’s ability to reproduce fine-scale circulation features. Our analysis revealed a strong correlation between fish-aggregating-devices speeds and observed currents both from drifter buoys and modeled currents from the forecast system. These findings demonstrate the value of fish-aggregating-devices as a complementary observational platform for verifying global ocean forecast systems. Their large numbers and broad spatial coverage offer a key advantage over the relatively sparse drifter buoy network, enhancing the resolution and reliability of ocean current observations in data-sparse regions.',

+      'Geodia hentscheli, a species forming sponge grounds in the North Atlantic and Arctic Oceans, is a common deep-sea organism, that plays a fundamental role in forming biogenic habitats. However, there is little information about gene flow and adaptation patterns of this species, which is crucial to develop effective management/conservation plans under current global change scenarios. Here, we generated ddRADseq data from 110 specimens of G. hentscheli, together with microbial profiling, transcriptomics, and metatranscriptomics for a selection of specimens to investigate their genetic diversity, molecular connectivity, and local adaptations. Sampling covered the species entire distribution within a wide bathymetric range. We obtained 1,115 neutral SNPs and identified long-distance genetic connectivity among regions separated 1,000s of km, but strong genetic structure segregating populations by depth at ca. 1,300 m, in line with our microbial analyses. Coalescent analyses inferred the split of these depth-related genetic entities ∼10 KYA, coincident with the last postglacial maximum. Analyses of SNPs under selection, combined with transcriptomic and metatranscriptomic data highlight the presence of several sponge genes and microbial metabolic pathways involved in adaptation to depth, including heat shock proteins and fatty acids, among others. The physiological plasticity of the sponge and its microbiome as a function of depth suggest the existence of a host-microbiome metabolic compensation for G. hentscheli. This study provides a multiscale paradigmatic example of the depth-differentiation hypothesis, a phenomenon mainly caused by changes in environmental conditions at different depths, mainly related to the presence of water masses with different characteristics that drive local adaptations.',
