Crafting the Ocean: The Geographies of Environmental World‐Making
Short Abstract The paper departs from existing analyses of ‘world making’, bringing cultural and environmental geographies into further conversation through linking theories of crafting and world‐making together, through the lens of the contemporary aquarium and nascent oceanic geographies.

Lunar cycles of reproduction in the clown anemonefish Amphiprion percula: individual-level strategies and population-level patterns [PDF]
Lunar cycles of reproduction are a widespread phenomenon in marine invertebrates and vertebrates. It is common practice to infer the adaptive value of this behavior based on the population level pattern.

Mitochondrial genomes of imperiled Caribbean corals are sequenced. These genomic resources will support conservation initiatives. ABSTRACT Coral reefs provide a wide variety of services essential to both marine ecosystems and human societies yet reef‐forming corals are currently facing a multitude of global and local environmental stressors.

Fraternal cooperation of hierarchical cancer parallels metazoan multicellularity and eusociality
ABSTRACT Metazoan multicellularity and eusociality — both outcomes of the fraternal major transitions — have numerous features in common such as uneven distribution of group‐establishing potential. In addition to this framework, I argue herein that the group‐forming principles of metazoan multicellularity and eusociality are analogous to hierarchical ...

ABSTRACT Facilitative interspecific interactions (FIIs) confer benefits to at least one participant without detriment to others. Although often less emphasised than antagonistic interactions in ecological studies, this review highlights the significant ecological role of FIIs across biological scales – from individual behaviours to population ...

Neighbours at war : aggressive behaviour and spatial responsiveness in the anemone, Actinia tenebrosa : this thesis is completed in part of a Masters of Conservation Biology degree [PDF]
Habitable space is precious and animals have developed a wide variety of mechanisms to acquire and defend favourable space. Aggression is considered any animal behaviour that involves actual or potential harm to another animal of either the same or ...
