Conceptualizing and Operationalizing Social Resilience within Commercial Fisheries in Northern Australia

open access: yesEcology and Society, 2007
How can we tell whether resource-dependent people are socially resilient to institutional change? This question is becoming increasingly important as demand for natural resources escalates, requiring resource managers to implement policies that are ...

Scientific Frontiers in the Management of Coral Reefs

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2015
Coral reefs are subjected globally to a variety of natural and anthropogenic stressors that often act synergistically. Today, reversing ongoing and future coral reef degradation presents significant challenges and countering this negative trend will take

The ReFuGe 2020 consortium - Using ‘omics’ approaches to explore the adaptability and resilience of coral holobionts to environmental change

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2015
Human-induced environmental changes have been linked directly with loss of biodiversity. Coral reefs, which have been severely impacted by anthropogenic activities over the last few decades, exemplify this global problem and provide an opportunity to ...

Potential and limits for rapid genetic adaptation to warming in a Great Barrier Reef coral

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2018
Can genetic adaptation in reef-building corals keep pace with the current rate of sea surface warming? Here we combine population genomics, biophysical modeling, and evolutionary simulations to predict future adaptation of the common coral Acropora ...

Perceptions of Australian marine protected area managers regarding the role, importance, and achievability of adaptation for managing the risks of climate change

open access: yesEcology and Society, 2014
The rapid development of adaptation as a mainstream strategy for managing the risks of climate change has led to the emergence of a broad range of adaptation policies and management strategies globally. However, the success of such policies or management

Fluorescence color diversity of great barrier reef corals [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Innovative Optical Health Sciences, 2015
A group of variously colored proteins belonging to the green fluorescent protein (GFP) family are responsible for coloring coral tissues. Corals of the Great Barrier Reef were studied with the custom-built fiber laser fluorescence spectrometers. Spectral
