This study investigates how Norwegian media actors construct narratives around NbS, whose voices are amplified, and the extent to which plural and Indigenous epistemologies are ...

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.Using Structure‐from‐Motion photogrammetry in a longitudinal study, we show that although coral reef habitat complexity had declined significantly by the end of the most prolonged tropical marine heatwave on record, no further losses were detected and 3 years later the reef had begun to recover this critical ecosystem function.

Sea Urchin Removal as a Tool for Macroalgal Restoration: A Review on Removing “the Spiny Enemies”
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022 Kelp and macroalgal forests provide the ecological foundations of many temperate rocky reef ecosystems, but have regionally declined, often due to sea urchin overgrazing and the formation of urchin barrens.

Acta Zoologica, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Pedicellariae are small appendages on the surface of the echinoid test, involved in defence, cleaning, and locomotion. Pedicellariae in three species of camarodont sea urchins common in UK waters (Paracentrotus lividus [Lamarck, 1816], Psammechinus miliaris [P.L.S Müller, 1771] and Echinus esculentus [Linnaeus, 1758]) are the focus of this ...

Cladistics, EarlyView.Abstract The marronoid clade is a globally distributed, ecologically diverse group of spiders. It is an important faunal component in both natural and synanthropic environments, and even found in aquatic and extreme habitats such as desert salt flats. The systematics of the marronoid clade has been notoriously unstable due to the widespread character ...

Culture, Agriculture, Food and Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT In recent years, a major push to restore oyster reefs has helped to revive the marine environments that were depleted in South Australia. Categorized as “Nature‐based Solutions” (NbS) that foster the return of biodiversity, these efforts have led to pockets of environmental optimism while countering an otherwise gloomy marine health forecast ...
