Predicting Coral Cover Trends From Local to Broad Spatial Scales
We present an integrated framework to track coral cover trends across multiple spatial scales, ranging from a local scale of 5 km2 to a broad scale exceeding 5000 km2. Through use cases, we demonstrate the value of our spatio‐temporal prediction framework in generating new insights from monitoring data across varying spatial and temporal data ...

Corals and Reef‐Dwelling Fish Regulate Carbon Storage and Cycling Processes in Coral Reef Ecosystems
Coral reefs are biodiversity hotspots, yet their role in carbon storage and cycling remains poorly understood. Using field surveys and modeling in the South China Sea, we reveal the overlooked potential of carbon storage in reef ecosystems and how reef fish, corals, and surface sediment jointly shape reef carbon reservoirs.

Sex-specific expression of pheromones and other signals in gravid starfish
Background Many echinoderms form seasonal aggregations prior to spawning. In some fecund species, a spawning event can lead to population outbreaks with detrimental ecosystem impacts.

A review of ecological risks of coral reef interventions
Abstract Introduction Coral reefs, essential for biodiversity, livelihoods, and global economies, face severe threats from climate change and other stressors. Curbing greenhouse emissions is crucial, but the urgent situation also calls for immediate intervention strategies.

Crown-of-Thorns Starfish Larvae Can Feed on Organic Matter Released from Corals
Previous studies have suggested that Crown-of-Thorns starfish (COTS) larvae may be able to survive in the absence of abundant phytoplankton resources suggesting that they may be able to utilize alternative food sources.

Portfolio Effects and Synchrony in Coral Communities
Reef‐building corals are well‐known for their taxonomic diversity and capacity for population variability. In investigating patterns of variability across coral taxa through a 9‐year annual time‐series, we found that a period of relative stability across the community was maintained through asynchronous fluctuations among constituent populations ...
