Restoration transforms coastal wetland ecosystem services over time
Abstract Habitat restoration is increasing globally, aiming to recover biodiversity and ecosystem services. To assess the success and value of such restoration projects, we need to understand how and when they produce desired restoration outcomes. However, there is currently limited data‐driven understanding of how biodiversity and ecosystem services ...

Abstract There is growing interest in nature‐based hybrid flood risk mitigation, in which wetland ecosystems, such as tidal marshes, are an integral part. Tidal marshes can attenuate wave loading on defense structures, reduce breach depth in case of defense structure failure, attenuate storm surges, reduce shoreline erosion, and grow vertically with ...

Experimentally derived critical thermal maxima (CTmax) are widely used to estimate species' thermal tolerance and increasingly to predict vulnerability to chronic warming. However, evidence shows how CTmax is dynamic and can be strongly influenced by multiple environmental and methodological factors, potentially limiting its application as a fixed ...

We characterized the vertical profiles of archaeal community composition, function, co‐occurrence networks, and assembly mechanisms in mangrove sediments across six depth intervals. Deep sediments hosted higher archaeal diversity, with distinct taxonomic and functional shifts, and more stable co‐occurrence networks compared to surface layers ...

Inferring the Abundance of an Island Megaherbivore From Semi‐Structured Distance Sampling
We use a hierarchical Bayesian distance‐sampling model to infer the atoll‐wide abundance and habitat‐specific density of Aldabra giant tortoises from long‐term, irregular transect monitoring on Aldabra Atoll (Seychelles). The detection‐corrected wet‐season estimate indicates a large, stable population of ~182,500 individuals (2018–2021), supporting the
