Australia’s Two Great Barrier Reefs: What Can ~360 Million Years of Change Teach Us?

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering
Coral reefs are among the most important marine habitats but face significant threats from anthropogenic sources, including climate change. This paper reviews and compares the modern Great Barrier Reef Province and the 360-million-year-old Devonian Great

Comparing Drone and Vessel‐Based Imaging to Quantify Epibiont Coverage on Humpback Whales

Marine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 4, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Cetacean epibionts offer noninvasive insights into host health, physiology, and spatial ecology, yet quantitative assessments in wild populations remain scarce. Although vessel‐based observations may be limited by field of view and analyst input, unoccupied aerial vehicles (UAVs; drones) are increasingly used to monitor cetacean health indices,

From temporal variability to integrated metabolic balance: Interpreting total alkalinity and dissolved inorganic carbon relationships in dynamic coral reef ecosystems

Limnology and Oceanography Letters, Volume 11, Issue 5, September 2026.
Abstract Linear regressions between total alkalinity (TA) and dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC) are widely used to infer the balance between net ecosystem calcification (NEC) and net ecosystem production (NEP) in coral reefs. Using high‐frequency carbonate chemistry observations from an Australian reef flat and simple numerical models, we show that TA ...

Commercially Exploited Seaweed Species in Africa: Occurrences, Chemical Composition, Current Value Chain and Opportunities for Value Addition

Reviews in Aquaculture, Volume 18, Issue 4, September 2026.
Commercially exploited seaweed species in Africa, their biochemical composition, current uses, and value chain are reviewed. Potential value‐addition of seaweed is suggested regionally in Africa amongst countries producing similar seaweed species. ABSTRACT Africa has a wide range of coastal environments that support a diverse array of seaweed species ...

Evaluation of High‐Resolution CORDEX‐CMIP6 Ocean Temperature Simulations for the Great Barrier Reef

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 15, 16 August 2026.
Abstract Longevity of the Great Barrier Reef (GBR) relies on specific oceanic and atmospheric conditions that are quickly deteriorating under climate change. While global climate models (GCMs) provide insights into large‐scale processes, they often lack the resolution to capture regional nuances affecting the GBR.

Patient‐Derived Organoid‐Based CRISPR Screens in Cancer Research: Applications, Advances, and Challenges

Cancer Medicine, Volume 15, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Patient‐derived organoids (PDOs) have emerged as physiologically relevant cancer models that preserve key genetic, histological, and functional features of the tumors from which they are derived. In parallel, CRISPR‐based perturbation technologies have transformed functional genomics by enabling scalable interrogation of gene function.

Development and Genetic Monitoring of a Putatively Thiamine Deficiency Complex Tolerant Atlantic Salmon Broodstock

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.
We introduce efforts to develop a potentially thiamine deficiency complex (TDC) tolerant Atlantic salmon broodstock via selective breeding, as well as control broodstock with higher genetic diversity (and no selection). Additionally, we develop the genetic monitoring tools (novel genetic marker panel, parentage‐based tagging) to monitor the demographic

Recent History of Surface Ocean Acidification Extremes That Compound Marine Heatwaves

AGU Advances, Volume 7, Issue 5, August 2026.
Abstract Compound extremes are of concern for ocean health, such as when ocean acidification extremes (OAX) and marine heatwaves (MHW) co‐occur. These compound events (OAX∩ $\,\cap \,$MHW) may amplify stress beyond the impact of each driver alone, yet their historical distribution remains poorly quantified.

Testing a site‐prioritisation framework to maximise survival of seeded corals

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 8, August 2026.
The framework tested can improve the efficiency of seeded‐coral deployments by increasing average survival through site selection for most taxa, thereby reducing the number of deployed spat needed to achieve a target outcome. Species‐specific weighting of factors was unnecessary for many Acropora species, but may be important for other taxa.

Predicting Coral Cover Trends From Local to Broad Spatial Scales

Global Change Biology, Volume 32, Issue 8, August 2026.
We present an integrated framework to track coral cover trends across multiple spatial scales, ranging from a local scale of 5 km2 to a broad scale exceeding 5000 km2. Through use cases, we demonstrate the value of our spatio‐temporal prediction framework in generating new insights from monitoring data across varying spatial and temporal data ...
