RETRACE Project: How to Enhance Resilience to Climate Risks in Pacific and Arctic Indigenous Communities?

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Risk management has evolved to analyze risks in a systemic way, integrating local knowledge with the abstract concept of resilience, which is now an imperative for vulnerable and exposed communities. However, existing decision‐support tools are mainly focused on technical‐functional aspects and, although based on rigorous and scientific ...

Integrating Coral Reef and Reef Fish Community Data to Support Sustainable Ecotourism Management in Lihaga Island, North Sulawesi, Indonesia [PDF]

open access: yesBIO Web of Conferences
Coral reef ecosystems and reef-fish communities underpin essential ecosystem services in tropical seas, particularly for small-island ecotourism. Lihaga Island in North Sulawesi, Indonesia, is experiencing increasing ecological pressure as marine ...

The productivity of coral reef fishes

open access: yes, 2020
Renato Morais developed a method to quantify the productivity of coral reef fishes. He used this method to evaluate the effects of fishing and climate change on the amount of fish that coral reefs produce. This method can be used to improve assessments of critically important, but increasingly threatened, tropical fisheries that sustain millions of ...

Tail wagging cats: Veterinary implications of AI‐generated video

open access: yesVeterinary Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Generative artificial intelligence (genAI) has the capacity to create realistic and convincing animal videos; however, it must simplify and reduce behavioural variation to do so, possibly leading to misinformation. Methods We categorised 29 videos in the press release for a specific video genAI engine. Twelve featured animals.

Coral-bacterial communities before and after a coral mass spawning event on Ningaloo Reef [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Bacteria associated with three coral species, Acropora tenuis, Pocillopora damicornis and Tubastrea faulkneri, were assessed before and after coral mass spawning on Ningaloo Reef in Western Australia.

Rising temperature non‐additively alters how different dimensions of biodiversity affect ecosystem‐scale processes

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
The authors distil how dimensions of biodiversity drive ecosystem processes with increasing temperature. Specifically, species physiology more greatly affected ecosystem primary production than did foraging behaviour, and physiology mediated non‐additive interactions with temperature.

Creation of complex reef structures through coral restoration does not affect associated fish populations on a remote, well-protected, Caribbean reef [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ
Coral reef ecosystems are facing severe degradation due to anthropogenic activities at both local and global scales. In response, extensive restoration efforts are underway, aiming to bolster coral cover and enhance reef fish communities to foster ...

Deep genetic divergences among Indo-Pacific populations of the coral reef sponge Leucetta chagosensis (Leucettidae) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Background: An increasing number of studies demonstrate that genetic differentiation and speciation in the sea occur over much smaller spatial scales than previously appreciated given the wide distribution range of many morphologically defined coral reef

Rapid loss, and slow recovery, of coral reef structural complexity resulting from a prolonged marine heatwave

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Using Structure‐from‐Motion photogrammetry in a longitudinal study, we show that although coral reef habitat complexity had declined significantly by the end of the most prolonged tropical marine heatwave on record, no further losses were detected and 3 years later the reef had begun to recover this critical ecosystem function.
