Our results demonstrate the importance of integrating connectivity into conservation planning by highlighting that the current marine protected area networks across the southwestern Pacific should be managed as an interconnected network rather than as isolated reserves.

Data‐driven discovery of mechanistic ecosystem models with LLMs
Abstract Ecosystem models are essential for ecosystem management, but their development traditionally requires significant time and expertise, creating bottlenecks in addressing urgent environmental challenges. We present LEMMA (LLM Enabled Mechanistic Modelling for ecosystem Assessment), a framework that programmatically generates and iteratively ...

Potential Impacts of Climate Interventions on Marine Ecosystems
Abstract Rising global temperatures pose significant risks to marine ecosystems, biodiversity, and fisheries. Recent comprehensive assessments suggest that large‐scale mitigation efforts to limit warming are falling short, and all feasible future climate projections, including those that represent optimistic emissions reductions, exceed the Paris ...

Temperature and the Larval Ecology of the Crown-of-Thorns Starfish, Acanthaster planci
The recently reported dramatic population increases (outbreaks) of the coral-eating crown-of-thorns starfish, Acanthaster planci, which have damaged many reefs in the Indo-Pacific, are ending (1), but questions remain about the factors that affect Acanthaster distribution and densities.

The Effect of Crown of Thorns Starfish on the Great Barrier Reef
Invasive species are normally defined as creatures with high reproduction rates and few natural predators. Their existence in an ecosystem can destroy an entire food chain by overconsumption of a particular population due to their vast numbers. This paper explores the effects the crown of thorns starfish has had on the great barrier reef in the past ...

Developing coral seeding devices and rapid deployment methods to scale up reef restoration
Current coral restoration methods are constrained by several factors, including low survival rates and high costs of coral production and deployment, making it difficult to address ecosystem‐wide coral declines. This study introduces a new two‐part coral seeding concept to efficiently settle, transport, and deploy coral spat.

Study on Phototaxis and Food‐Inducing Effects in Procambarus clarkii
As a globally significant freshwater aquaculture species, Procambarus clarkii has attracted considerable attention due to its economic value. Understanding its behavioral characteristics is crucial for improving aquaculture practices. This study systematically investigated the effects of different light conditions and feeding attractants on P.

Diversity and Prevalence of Coral Diseases in the Nearshore Regions of the Northern South China Sea
This study presents the first systematic survey of coral disease diversity and prevalence in the nearshore regions of the northern South China Sea. Six common diseases and eight stress‐related phenomena were documented across seven sites, revealing distinct regional patterns and host‐specific susceptibilities.

Density dependent habitat selection in response to habitat loss in a coral reef fish
Habitat loss triggers a social chain reaction: adult reef fish crowd onto remaining coral, then spill over onto dead coral—and juveniles follow. This study reveals a novel, socially driven ‘bandwagon effect’ that may lead to ecological traps, highlighting hidden behavioural risks in degraded marine ecosystems.
