Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.Land cover change that leads to increased nutrient and sediment runoff is an important driver of change in coral reef ecosystems. In this study, we combined satellite remote sensing and field monitoring to assess concomitant changes in watershed land cover and coral cover in northeastern Puerto Rico in 2000–2015.

Regional Sustainable Economic Development in the Caribbean? A Discursive Inquiry
Sustainable Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The Caribbean region is governed by several regional bodies. Among the more important organizations for small island states, where coral reefs and ocean conservation are paramount, is the Caribbean Community (CARICOM). Currently, the region is going through critical environmental changes that bring important vulnerabilities.

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Sargassum inundation of Caribbean and American shorelines is a growing environmental hazard. Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) and ammonia (NH3) produced by decomposing Sargassum could be involved in airway obstruction and bronchial inflammation. The study was undertaken to evaluate the effects of exposure to H2S and NH3 gases emitted during Sargassum ...

Native habitat affinities predict fish invasions with post‐invasion habitat shifts
Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.Initial invasion success is gated by native pre‐adaptations, but post‐invasion establishment is characterized by habitat shifts. We demonstrate that forecasting risk based solely on native niches severely underestimates future ecological impacts, and we provide an empirically validated watchlist of future invaders.
