Density dependent habitat selection in response to habitat loss in a coral reef fish

Journal of Animal Ecology, Volume 94, Issue 12, Page 2421-2430, December 2025.
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.

Violapyrones H and I, New Cytotoxic Compounds Isolated from Streptomyces sp. Associated with the Marine Starfish Acanthaster planci

Marine Drugs, 2014
Two new α-pyrone derivatives, violapyrones H (1) and I (2), along with known violapyrones B (3) and C (4) were isolated from the fermentation broth of a marine actinomycete Streptomyces sp.

A social license to operate theory for lethal control of crown‐of‐thorns starfish on the Great Barrier Reef

People and Nature, Volume 7, Issue 11, Page 2838-2851, November 2025.
Abstract Outbreaks of crown‐of‐thorns starfish (COTS) have been recorded on the Great Barrier Reef (GBR) since 1962 and have considerable ecological and economic impact. Monitoring and control of COTS to predict, prevent and mitigate outbreaks is an important part of the ongoing protection of the GBR.

Beyond the numbers: Critical analysis of the role of postmortem tryptase in the forensic diagnosis of anaphylaxis

Journal of Forensic Sciences, Volume 70, Issue 6, Page 2117-2128, November 2025.
Abstract The postmortem diagnosis of anaphylaxis remains a forensic challenge due to the lack of specific external signs. Tryptase, a mast cell‐derived protease, has emerged as a potential biomarker for fatal anaphylaxis. This systematic review critically examined 40 studies published between 2014 and 2024, including both biochemical and ...

Advances in coral reef restoration in the Mexican Pacific: active interventions and scaling approaches

Restoration Ecology, Volume 33, Issue 8, November 2025.
Abstract Introduction Coral reefs face escalating threats from the synergic effects of natural and anthropogenic stressors, challenging traditional conservation strategies and prompting the emergence of direct intervention approaches for coral reef restoration.

Accelerated regeneration of hard corals: a manual for coral reef users and managers [PDF]

, 1995
Coral reefs can be extensively damaged by natural phenomena such as cyclones, man-induced changes such as tourist developments, reefwalking, strandings, and pollution, or by the crown-of-thorns starfish.

Dive tourism in Luganville, Vanuatu: shocks, stressors and vulnerability to climate change [PDF]

, 2012
Luganville is a developing dive tourism destination region (DTDR) in Vanuatu, which relies on tourism. This article reports on the shocks and stressors faced by Luganville’s dive tourism sector and climate change’s exacerbation of these.

Connectivity of Coral Reefs Along the Kuroshio Current Calls for Transboundary Conservation Strategies

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 9, September 2025.
We conducted biophysical modelling of 30 years of larval dispersal across the Northwest Pacific to identify major sources of coral larvae to the Yaeyama and Miyako Islands (YAE) in Japan. Of the externally sourced larvae reaching YAE, approximately 70% came from the Philippines, around 20% from Taiwan and only a few percent from Japan.

Towards Implementing Multispecies Harvest Strategies That Are Robust to Interacting Populations

Fish and Fisheries, Volume 26, Issue 5, Page 923-941, September 2025.
To advance the implementation of fisheries management that is robust to interacting populations (RIP), ecosystem management approaches can be structured using four main categories: (A) whole‐of‐ecosystem; (B) focus or key species; (C) species of conservation concern; and (D) pest or climate‐immigrant species.

Moving Beyond Temperature Metrics in Coral Bleaching Prediction Using Interpretable Machine Learning

Global Ecology and Biogeography, Volume 34, Issue 8, August 2025.
ABSTRACT Aim Marine heatwaves are the greatest threat to coral reefs, but the interplay between other physical environmental factors often influences the thermal sensitivity of corals. While existing coral bleaching algorithms largely depend on temperature‐related metrics, such relationships may not hold under climate change when corals experience ...
