The Internal Microenvironment of the Symbiotic Jellyfish Cassiopea sp. From the Red Sea by Silvia Arossa, Alan Barozzi, Matteo Callegari, Shannon G. Klein, Anieka J. Parry, Shiou-Han Hung, Alexandra Steckbauer, Manuel Aranda, Daniele Daffonchio, Carlos M. Duarte

“…(the “upside-down jellyfish”), which has an obligatory association with Symbiodiniaceae. Before sunrise, the internal O2 and pH levels were substantially lower than those in ambient seawater conditions (minimum average levels: 61.92 ± 5.06 1SE μmol O2 L–1 and 7.93 ± 0.02 1SE pH units, respectively), indicating that conditions within Cassiopea’s oral arms were acidified and hypoxic relative to the surrounding seawater. …”

Fireworks: A major source of inorganic and organic aerosols during Christmas and New Year in Mexico city by Armando Retama, Angélica Neria-Hernández, Mónica Jaimes-Palomera, Olivia Rivera-Hernández, Miguel Sánchez-Rodríguez, Alfonso López-Medina, Erik Velasco

“…The stagnant atmosphere at night accumulates the fireworks haze under a shallow boundary layer. By sunrise, once the fireworks activity has stopped, the photolysis of the abundant HONO accumulated throughout the night, leads to a rapid production of nitrate (NO3−), ammonium (NH4+), sulfate (SO42−) and low volatility secondary organic aerosols. …”
