The influence of marine benthic habitat data on systematic conservation planning: Rottnest island as a case study

, 2011
The need for mechanisms to protect, maintain and restore global marine biodiversity has been globally recognised. Systematic conservation planning algorithms, such as MARXAN, are now a preferred solution for designing marine protected areas (MPAs) that ...

Ocean acidification, more than warming or heatwaves, constrains shoaling behaviour in a range‐extending fish through habitat simplification

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
We show that ocean acidification, more than warming or marine heatwaves, alters shoaling behaviour indirectly by simplifying reef habitat and reducing population densities and shoal sizes. Because fish behaviour can be strongly mediated by shoal size, climate‐driven habitat change may reshape social dynamics that influence how range‐extending fishes ...

Deep blueprint: A literature review and guide to automated image classification for ecologists

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
A practical, literature‐grounded review that gives ecologists a clear, modular workflow for deep learning image classification. With code, GUIs and a novel deep sea case study (automated deep sea biotope classification) it lowers technical barriers and provides a usable blueprint for accelerating, standardising, and scaling ecological image analysis ...

Pollution effects on body mass distributions of freshwater benthic communities

, 2010
Theoretical studies of the resilience of ecological systems to environmental change predict that the size distributions of species in ecosystems should have discontinuities that reflect similar discontinuities in ecosystem processes.

Social organization and habitat use shape the gut microbiome of a marine fish

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
This study provides the first evidence linking habitat use—and to a lesser extent social organization—to gut microbiome composition in a wild marine fish. The results indicate that local habitat conditions are the primary driver of microbial variation, while social effects are detectable but weak.

Development of techniques to classify marine benthic habitats using hyperspectral imagery in oligotrophic, temperate waters

, 2009
There is an increasing need for more detailed knowledge about the spatial distribution and structure of shallow water benthic habitats for marine conservation and planning.

Sustainable Development Goals Applied to the Maritime Transportation Sector: Setting Sail for the Future

Natural Resources Forum, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development aims to eradicate poverty, protect the environment, and promote prosperity through 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Achieving these goals requires a multi‐sectoral approach. Maritime transportation, vital to the global economy, significantly contributes to several SDGs and plays a strategic ...
