Red, green, blue color indices as proxy for Symbiodiniaceae cell density and chlorophyll content during coral bleaching

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Coral bleaching, the breakdown of the symbiosis between the coral host and endosymbiotic microalgae, is the main cause of widespread coral reef degradation. Current visual assessment methods for coral health, including color reference cards, are constrained by subjective human color perception and limited resolution.

Scenarios and strategies for future‐proofing ecosystem management under climatic novelty

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Climate change is driving unprecedented declines in dominant, habitat‐forming foundation species across marine and terrestrial ecosystems globally. As climatic novelty becomes the norm, ecosystem reassembly will become increasingly common. Predicting and understanding these transitions, and their implications for future ecosystem functioning ...
