Exploitation, secondary extinction and the altered trophic structure of Jamaican coral reefs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Coral reef communities of the Greater Antilles in the Caribbean have a long history of anthropogenic disturbance, driven by the exploitation for food of both vertebrate and invertebrate species.

CRFM Consultancy Report on Review of Existing Policy, Legal and Institutional Arrangements for Governance and Management of Flyingfish Fisheries in the Caribbean Large Marine Ecosystem [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Many of the marine resources in the Caribbean are considered to be fully or overexploited. A Transboundary Diagnostic Analysis identified three priority transboundary problems that affect the CLME: unsustainable exploitation of fish and other living ...

The Effectiveness of Psychological Treatment for Anorexia Nervosa in Adolescents: A Critical Review of Randomized Controlled Trials

open access: yesInternational Journal of Eating Disorders, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Although international treatment guidelines for eating disorders recommend varying psychological approaches for adolescents with anorexia nervosa (AN), most existing reviews have combined adolescent and adult samples, leaving the overall evidence base for this population poorly defined.

Trends in marine species distribution models: a review of methodological advances and future challenges

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Correlative species distribution models (SDMs) are quantitative tools in biogeography and macroecology. Building upon the ecological niche concept, they correlate environmental covariates to species presence to model habitat suitability and predict species distributions.

The Large-Scale Geostrophic Circulation Around Cuba: Insights from Altimeter Data

open access: yesOceans
Due to the scarcity of in situ observations, the current description of the circulation around Cuba is far from complete. For example, the structure and variability of the flow through the Windward Passage, which hosts a significant fraction of the ...

The scaling of seed‐dispersal specialization in interaction networks across levels of organization

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Natural ecosystems are characterized by a specialization pattern where few species are common while many others are rare. In ecological networks involving biotic interactions, specialization operates as a continuum at individual, species, and community levels. Theory predicts that ecological and evolutionary factors can primarily explain specialization.
