Gardening Pocillopora spp. fragments and their potential for rebuilding reef systems in the southern Mexican Pacific

Restoration Ecology, Volume 31, Issue 8, November 2023., 2023
The degradation of coral reefs during the last decades has turned attention toward management and restoration interventions. This study seeks to operationalize coral gardening of Pocillopora spp. fragments in low profile bottom‐anchored nurseries and to compare survival and growth patterns between sites, time, and fragment size in the southern Mexican ...

Digitizing the coral reef: Machine learning of underwater spectral images enables dense taxonomic mapping of benthic habitats

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 2, Page 596-613, February 2023., 2023
Abstract Coral reefs are the most biodiverse marine ecosystems, and host a wide range of taxonomic diversity in a complex spatial community structure. Existing coral reef survey methods struggle to accurately capture the taxonomic detail within the complex spatial structure of benthic communities.

Turning a lost reef ecosystem into a national restoration program

Conservation Biology, Volume 36, Issue 6, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Achieving a sustainable socioecological future now requires large‐scale environmental repair across legislative borders. Yet, enabling large‐scale conservation is complicated by policy‐making processes that are disconnected from socioeconomic interests, multiple sources of knowledge, and differing applications of policy.
