Predictions of southern migration timing in coastal sharks under future ocean warming
Abstract Projected redistribution of marine species due to ocean warming may undermine current conservation efforts. Yet, there have been few studies on how ocean warming may alter migration timing. Across 5 years of acoustic telemetry data (2018–2022), we determined environmental drivers of southward migration timing for 6 migratory shark species from

Vulnerability of tropical fish communities across depth in the central Indian Ocean
Abstract Coral reefs and their fish communities below scuba diving depth (>30 m), in mesophotic coral ecosystems (MCEs) (∼30–150 m), in rariphotic (150–300 m), and in upper bathyal waters (300–500 m) are often underexplored, especially in the Indian Ocean.

ABSTRACT Given the importance of soil conditions for ecosystem functioning, fertilisation experiments are a valuable tool for assessing how systems respond to changes in soil properties. However, the effects of changes in nutrient availability on multitrophic interactions in savannah ecosystems of the Brazilian Cerrado are still scarce. We investigated

Misplaced fears? What the evidence reveals of the ecological effects of tidal power generation
Marine energy (tidal range and stream/flow) is a dependable and clean power source that stands out as a compelling alternative to fossil fuels. Despite widespread concerns surrounding the ecological effects of tidal energy infrastructure, we find few of these are substantiated by evidence or long‐term monitoring of existing tidal power projects.

ABSTRACT In the first study on Neogoniolithon species for the Southwestern Atlantic Ocean, based on both molecular (COI‐5P, psbA and SSU rDNA) and morpho‐anatomical data, three taxa were identified for the Brazilian coast, including two new species. DNA‐based species delimitation methods distinguished Neogoniolithon crypticum sp. nov.

Mapping priority areas to mitigate the risk of electrocution of range‐restricted bird species
Our study proposes a framework to identify areas with higher electrocution risk, which can be used even in data‐scarce regions or adapted to a multi‐species assessment context. This approach can support proactive strategies for energy companies with an initial assessment identifying areas to avoid installing new power lines, evaluating sites for ...

Modeling nature‐based restoration potential across aquatic–terrestrial boundaries
Abstract Today, few watersheds remain untouched by global change processes arising from climate warming, impoundments, channelization, water extraction, pollution, and urbanization. The need for restoration has resulted in a myriad of interventions, generally performed at small scales, which have limited measurable impact in restoring biodiversity and

By comparing native and neonative populations of an Amazonian lizard, we examine how urban environments and climate change impact its functional traits, while also predicting its future distribution. Our findings offer insights into how some species may adapt to human‐altered landscapes, showing that not all are negatively affected by these changes ...

Effects of protection on large‐bodied reef fishes in the western Indian Ocean
Abstract Predatory and large‐bodied coral reef fishes have fundamental roles in the functioning and biodiversity of coral reef ecosystems, but their populations are declining, largely due to overexploitation in fisheries. These fishes include sharks, groupers, Humphead wrasse (Cheilinus undulatus), and Green Humphead parrotfish (Bolbometopon muricatum).
