International Journal of Marine Life International Journal of Marine Life (IJML) is a Online journal launched in 2024 that aims to publish high-quality research articles, reviews, and other scientific contributions related to marine life. The journal focuses on all aspects of marine …
The scope of the journal includes research on marine organisms from all taxonomic groups, including bacteria, viruses, protists, algae, invertebrates, and vertebrates. The journal also welcomes contributions on marine ecosystem processes, including primary production, nutrient cycling, biotic interactions, and trophic dynamics. Studies that address the impacts of anthropogenic activities on marine life, including climate change, ocean acidification, pollution, and overfishing, are also of great interest to the journal.
ijml maintains an Editorial Board of practicing researchers from around the world, to ensure manuscripts are handled by editors who are experts in the field of study.

Oceans regulate global climate systems, support biodiversity, and serve as critical carbon sinks, yet they remain under-monitored relative to their ecological importance.
Marine microorganisms constitute the largest and most dynamic fraction of Earth's biodiversity, governing vital ecosystem functions ranging from global biogeochemical cycling to host-specific symbiotic associations.
The accelerating impacts of climate change and human activities are profoundly reshaping marine ecosystems, threatening biodiversity, and altering trophic dynamics. This study synthesizes recent research on the responses of marine flora and fauna to temperature fluctuations, ocean acidification, pollution, and overfishing, highlighting the cascading effects on primary production, nutrient cycling, and ecosystem resilience.
The rocky intertidal shoreline of Veraval, located along the Saurashtra coast of Gujarat, serves as a vital habitat for various marine organisms due to its unique composition of rocky- sandy patches and tidal pools.
Aquatic and wetland ecosystems in Punjab, India, represent ecologically significant yet increasingly degraded socioecological systems embedded within an intensively managed agrarian landscape. Despite their recognised importance, existing studies largely treat these systems using conventional freshwater ecological frameworks, with limited integration of microbiologically mediated processes and broader ecosystem theories.
Women play a crucial role in the fisheries and aquaculture sector, engaging in activities such as fish processing, marketing, and aquaculture management.
