A method for risk analysis across governance systems: a Great Barrier Reef case study
Healthy governance systems are key to delivering sound environmental management outcomes from global to local scales. There are, however, surprisingly few risk assessment methods that can pinpoint those domains and sub-domains within governance systems ...

Atmospheric Trace Metal Deposition near the Great Barrier Reef, Australia
Aerosols deposited into the Great Barrier Reef (GBR) contain iron (Fe) and other trace metals, which may act as micronutrients or as toxins to this sensitive marine ecosystem. In this paper, we quantified the atmospheric deposition of Fe and investigated

Network‐based bioregionalization of demersal fish in continental shelf seas
Biogeographical partitioning of ecological communities has been renewed in recent decades to illustrate broad distributional patterns. In the oceans, observational datasets have grown substantially and open new access to test bioregional patterns beyond classically fixed thresholds of endemism to differentiate regions.

Trematodes of the Great Barrier Reef, Australia: emerging patterns of diversity and richness in coral reef fishes [PDF]
The Great Barrier Reef holds the richest array of marine life found anywhere in Australia, including a diverse and fascinating parasite fauna. Members of one group, the trematodes, occur as sexually mature adult worms in almost all Great Barrier Reef ...

Decentralized Wind Energy Systems as Catalysts for Urban Resilience: A Design Framework
ABSTRACT Confronting the escalating extreme weather events (EWEs) and intensifying winds, this study proposes an active response to these issues by exploring decentralized wind energy production for Peng Chau Island, Hong Kong. It integrates theoretical perspectives on energy democracy—empowering local communities through energy autonomy—and urban ...
