The impact of CO2 emissions on 'nuisance' marine species [PDF]
, 2015 Anthropogenic CO2 emissions are being taken up from the atmosphere by the oceans, increasing the availability of dissolved inorganic carbon but reducing both the carbonate saturation and pH of seawater.

Keystone Predation: What Is It, and Is It Supported by Empirical Evidence?
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 12, December 2025.Keystone predation has been widely cited as a key ecological mechanism controlling community structures, but is supported by limited theoretical and experimental studies. Reviewing these studies showed keystone predation has been documented across realms, appears to be most prevalent in sessile and dispersal‐limited communities and can be modified by ...

Scientific Reports, 2018 Coral-eating Crown-of-Thorns Sea stars (Acanthaster spp.) are major contributors to coral reef loss in the Indo-Pacific region. A release from food limitation of their planktotrophic larvae through enhanced pelagic productivity is one of the main ...

A case study of infestation of Acanthaster pianci in Andaman waters [PDF]
, 1990 The starfish feeds on coral polyps and often plague of them are observed on many parts of the Indo – Pacific reefs causing mortality to vast areas of reef corals and their subsequent degradation.

Density dependent habitat selection in response to habitat loss in a coral reef fish
Journal of Animal Ecology, Volume 94, Issue 12, Page 2421-2430, December 2025.Habitat loss triggers a social chain reaction: adult reef fish crowd onto remaining coral, then spill over onto dead coral—and juveniles follow. This study reveals a novel, socially driven ‘bandwagon effect’ that may lead to ecological traps, highlighting hidden behavioural risks in degraded marine ecosystems.

Growth of Juvenile Acanthaster planci (L.) in the Laboratory [PDF]
, 1974 Seven juvenile Acanthaster planci were reared from fertilized eggs to sexual maturity in 18 to 21 months in the laboratory. Four-month-old juveniles, about 8 mm in total diameter, began to transform into coral predators from the prior herbivore stage ...
