Marine heatwaves are causing recurring coral bleaching events on tropical reefs that are driving wholesale ecosystem change. Yet little is known about how bleaching and subsequent coral mortality impacts the spatial properties of tropical seascapes, such as patterns of organism spatial clustering and heterogeneity across scales.

Abstract Animal re‐identification remains a challenging problem due to the cost of tagging systems and the difficulty of permanently attaching a physical marker to some animals, such as sea stars. Due to these challenges, photo identification is a good fit to solve this problem whether evaluated by humans or through machine learning.

Neuropeptide expression and action in the reproductive system of the starfish Asterias rubens
The expression and action of neuropeptides in the reproductive system of the starfish Asterias rubens were investigated, as illustrated here for ArPPLN2h. This neuropeptide is expressed in the coelomic epithelial layer of the gonads [CE(Gd); arrowheads] in both female (a) and male (b) animals, and it causes relaxation of ovary (c) and testis (d ...

Olfactory responses of coral-reef fishes to coral degradation and crown-of-thorns (Acanthaster planci) [PDF]
Coral degradation is a major threat towards the biodiversity of coral-reef ecosystems, either through the physical effects of environmental change, or biological agents such as crown-of-thorns (Acanthaster planci).

Effects Of Marine Protected Areas On The Population Of ACANTHASTER PLANCI In Moorea, French Polynesia [PDF]
Since the 1960’s the crown-of-thorns starfish, Acanthaster planci¸ has devastated coral reefs. There are many competing theories about the causes for these outbreaks of A. planci. One of the leading theories is that it is an anthropogenic cause.
