The Greenland–Scotland Ridge in a Changing Ocean: Time to Act?

open access: yesMarine Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Greenland–Scotland Ridge is a submarine mountain that rises up to 500 m below the sea surface and extends from the east coast of Greenland to the continental shelf of Iceland and across the Faroe Islands to Scotland. The ridge not only separates deeper ocean basins on either side, that is, the North Atlantic and Arctic oceans, but also ...

Habitat complexity promotes species richness and community stability: a case study in a marine biogenic habitat

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Habitat complexity (HC) promotes species richness and abundance. Aquatic environments are faced with intense pressures that threaten the 3D structure of the seafloor, with cascading effects on ecosystem functioning and biodiversity. Maerl or rhodolith beds are marine biogenic habitats created by few species of free‐living non‐geniculate coralline algae

Wetland plant growth in recycled glass sand versus dredged river sand: evaluating a new resource for coastal restoration

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Sand made from recycled glass cullet could supplement limited dredged river sand (dredge) in coastal wetland restorations; however, its suitability for wetland plants is unknown. In two experiments, we compared the biomass of several wetland plants in recycled glass sand to growth in dredge.

Employing invertebrates to restore herbivory on Caribbean coral reefs: recent developments and remaining barriers

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
With coral reefs in global decline and further threatened by growing anthropogenic impacts, effective strategies for restoring these critical ecosystems are increasingly sought after. In Caribbean reefs, where disease outbreaks and fishing pressure have reduced herbivore abundances and facilitated widespread phase shifts from coral to algal dominance ...
