Fish predators control outbreaks of Crown-of-Thorns Starfish

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
Outbreaks of Crown-of-Thorn Starfish (CoTS) have caused coral cover declines across the Indo-Pacific. Here the authors analyse long-term CoTS, coral reef fish monitoring, and fisheries catch data from the Great Barrier Reef to demonstrate removal of ...

Insights Into the Environmental Impact on Genetic Structure and Larval Dispersal of Crown-of-Thorns Starfish in the South China Sea

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2021
The coral-eating crown-of-thorns starfish (COTS; Acanthaster spp.) play a major role in coral reef degradation in the Indo-Pacific region. However, the impacts of environmental factors on the phylogenetic and genetic characteristics of COTS in the ...

Induction of larval settlement in crown-of-thorns starfish is not mediated by conspecific cues

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
Population irruptions of crown-of-thorns starfish (COTS; Acanthaster spp.) remain a major cause of coral reef degradation throughout the Pacific and Indian Oceans and are inherently modulated by larval settlement and recruitment success.

The design, evaluation, and reporting on non‐pharmacological, cognition‐oriented treatments for older adults: Results of a survey of experts

open access: yesAlzheimer’s & Dementia: Translational Research & Clinical Interventions, 2020
Introduction Cognitive decline and dementia significantly affect independence and quality of life in older adults; therefore, it is critical to identify effective cognition‐oriented treatments (COTs; eg, cognitive training, rehabilitation) that can help ...

Increasing densities of Pacific crown-of-thorns starfish (Acanthaster cf. solaris) at Lizard Island, northern Great Barrier Reef, resolved using a novel survey method

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
Recurrent population irruptions of Pacific crown-of-thorns starfish (CoTS, Acanthaster cf. solaris) are among the foremost causes of coral mortality on Australia’s Great Barrier Reef (GBR).

Age and Growth of An Outbreaking Acanthaster cf. solaris Population within the Great Barrier Reef

open access: yesDiversity, 2017
Despite having been studied for more than 40 years, much about the basic life history of crown-of-thorns starfish (CoTS; Acanthaster spp.) remains poorly understood. Size at age—a key metric of productivity for any animal population—has yet to be clearly

Physiological and transcriptomic responses to starvation in the corallivorous crown-of-thorn starfish

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2022
The outbreak of coral-eating Acanthaster spp., commonly known as the Crown-of-Thorn Starfish (CoTS), contributes to a significant proportion of coral loss in the tropical Indo-Pacific region.
