Habitat connectivity in coastal environments: patterns and movements of Caribbean coral reef fishes with emphasis on Bluestriped Grunt, Haemulon sciurus [PDF]
Habitat connectivity within tropical marine seascapes may be greatly dependent on the movement of large organisms, particularly fishes. Using visual and trap sampling within two small bays in Virgin Islands National Park/Biosphere Reserve, St. John, U.S.

Pre‐Curved Everting Robots With Embedded Steering Intelligence Fabricated by CO2 Laser Welding
Design and experimental demonstration of a laser welded growing robot for anatomically guided navigation. The robot follows an aortic arch phantom entering the branchiocephalic branch through steering by design. The figure shows the physical phantom setup, CAD defined weld geometry and full robot eversion.

Coral-associated microbial communities in reef-building corals of Ningaloo Reef Western Australia [PDF]
Coral reefs are at risk and human-induced environmental stressors in synergism with microorganisms have been shown to be the key players for their deterioration.

Episodic heterogeneous decline and recovery of coral cover in the Indian Ocean [PDF]
Long-term changes in coral cover for the Caribbean and the Pacific/Southeast Asia regions (PSEA) have proven extremely useful in assessing the main drivers, magnitude and timescales of change.

Review of Coral Taxonomy, Evolution and Diversity
To recast Theodosius Dobzhansky’s famous 1973 quote: ‘nothing in coral taxonomy makes sense except in light of reticulate evolution’. Coral species evolve through the continual intermixing of ancestral lineages forming a network of changing genetic ...

Impacts of ocean warming on echinoderms: A meta‐analysis
Rising ocean temperatures are threatening marine species and populations worldwide, and ectothermic taxa are particularly vulnerable. Echinoderms are an ecologically important phylum of marine ectotherms and shifts in their population dynamics can have ...

The 27–year decline of coral cover on the Great Barrier Reef and its causes [PDF]
This study investigates the spatial and temporal dynamics of coral cover, identifies the main drivers of coral mortality, and quantifies the rates of potential recovery of the Great Barrier Reef.The world’s coral reefs are being degraded, and the need to

Land birds on atolls: diversity, origin, and function
ABSTRACT Oceanic islands are global hotspots of avian biodiversity and endemism. Their isolation and distinct environmental conditions have uniquely shaped the evolutionary trajectories of island birds, while, in turn, land bird communities have become critical providers of ecological functions to island ecosystems.
