Spectral Refraction Modeling of Waves Around the Steep Reef at Palau

Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, Volume 130, Issue 10, October 2025.
Abstract Western Pacific islands, such as Palau, are susceptible to wave‐driven inundation due to low land elevations and limited space for coastal retreat. Assessing the impacts of extreme wave events on these low‐lying islands requires regional numerical models that account for remotely generated waves from all directions and that resolve the complex

Visual ecology in challenging environments: How organisms evolve in extremes of light and adapt to shifting conditions

Functional Ecology, Volume 39, Issue 10, Page 2556-2560, October 2025.
Abstract Sensory systems are under constant pressure from environmental changes, and vision offers a particularly rich lens to study adaptation. In this Special Feature, we present a collection of contributions that explore the roles of visual systems in extreme or dynamic environments.

The rainbow connection: The case for including substrate colour in the ‘eco‐engineering’ of marine constructions

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 62, Issue 10, Page 2858-2869, October 2025.
Our results show that in the low intertidal, colour can shape sessile community assembly on concrete surfaces over time scales of at least 12 months. Consequently, alongside the habitat complexity and material type of marine built structures, colour warrants consideration in the development of eco‐friendly designs. The colour of marine built structures

An open source, remote sensing‐based methodology for wetland habitat condition assessments to aid conservation decision‐making

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 62, Issue 10, Page 2844-2857, October 2025.
Relative long‐term habitat condition was quantified to help direct conservation decision‐making. This time‐ and cost‐saving method is transferrable to other habitats with their own set of condition assessment indices to aid multiple conservation objective planning.

Measuring critical thermal maximum in aquatic ectotherms: A practical guide

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 10, Page 2208-2228, October 2025.
Abstract Critical thermal limits, commonly quantified as CTmax (maximum) or CTmin (minimum), are core metrics in the thermal biology of aquatic ectotherms. CTmax, in particular, has recently surged in popularity due to its various applications, including understanding and predicting the responses of animals to climate warming.

DNA Divers: Volunteer‐based eDNA capture for local and global marine biodiversity monitoring

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 10, Page 2431-2447, October 2025.
Abstract Volunteer‐based biodiversity recording is a powerful source of scalable data yet to be used to its full potential by the scientific community. Coastal ecosystems are varied and diverse, making it difficult for managers to identify flexible methods for monitoring biological components.
