Spring viremia of carp virus (SVCV) is a contagious pathogen associated with significant mortality and economic losses in freshwater aquaculture. Although reverse transcription quantitative PCR (RT‐qPCR) enables rapid detection, it does not distinguish between infectious and non‐infectious viral particles, which may lead to overestimation of infection risk. In this study, a viability RT‐qPCR (vqPCR) assay targeting the glycopr...

The Ulleung Basin (UB), in the East Sea (Japan Sea) hosts a long-term ocean monitoring station with a time-series sediment trap. We present new 1-year sinking particle fluxes, along with organic (radiocarbon) and inorganic (detrital neodymium; ϵNd -detrital ) isotopic compositions of sinking particles and surface sediments in order to constrain lateral particle advection. The εNd -detrital values of the Korean Peninsula and th...

Long-term ocean time-series stations have significantly advanced our understanding of ocean–climate interactions, yet marginal seas remain underrepresented in global observing networks. The East Sea (Japan Sea) provides a valuable natural laboratory, characterized by rapid ventilation, oxygen-rich deep waters, and sensitivity to climate forcing. Recent evidence of weakening deep-water formation and a decline in the uptake of a...
