Restoration Ecology, Volume 33, Issue 8, November 2025.Abstract Introduction Vallisneria, a freshwater angiosperm critical to aquatic biodiversity and teal carbon storage in Great Barrier Reef catchments, has declined due to habitat degradation and poor water quality. Scalable restoration approaches are urgently needed to support ecological and climate outcomes.

Measuring critical thermal maximum in aquatic ectotherms: A practical guide
Methods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 10, Page 2208-2228, October 2025.Abstract Critical thermal limits, commonly quantified as CTmax (maximum) or CTmin (minimum), are core metrics in the thermal biology of aquatic ectotherms. CTmax, in particular, has recently surged in popularity due to its various applications, including understanding and predicting the responses of animals to climate warming.

Metabarcoding Primers for Indo‐Pacific Fishes
Environmental DNA, Volume 7, Issue 5, September–October 2025.We compared the relative performance of five metabarcoding primers (Berry 16S, Riaz 12S, MiFish E 12S, MiFish U 12S, and Leray CO1) to recover Indo‐Pacific fish taxa. We tested the primers using template DNA from three types of samples: (1) mock communities of tissue‐based DNA extractions, (2) a semi‐natural aquarium tank, and (3) a tropical coral reef

Journal of Fish Biology, Volume 107, Issue 2, Page 520-534, August 2025.Abstract In South Africa, mangrove forests and seagrass meadows often co‐occur in estuarine systems and in combination host rich, often endemic biodiversity. There is an urgent need to explore community diversity in coastal vegetated ecosystems, given the degrading effects of climate change and anthropogenic pressures.
