Diel release timing is a critical determinant of reef fish survival in Post‐larval Capture, Culture, and Release

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Predation is a dominant force shaping survival of coral reef fishes. Synchronous, nocturnal settlement during low‐light, new moon periods may have developed as an adaptive response to intense predation during settlement. Post‐larval Capture, Culture, and Release (PCCR), where juvenile fishes are released directly to the reef ...

Antifouling capacity of substrate materials and their effects on settlement and post‐settlement survival of Acropora palmata and Orbicella faveolata

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction In coral reef restoration, sexual reproduction is a key methodology to enhance coral population recovery. However, post‐settlement survival remains a major bottleneck, as spat are particularly vulnerable to competition with fouling organisms.

Climate‐Smart Agricultural Assets and Household Coping Strategies in Times of Upheaval

Review of Development Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Transferring agricultural assets can be welfare‐improving for smallholders. Can agricultural assets also improve smallholders' ability to cope with unprecedented exogenous shocks? We investigate this question using the case of subsidized solar‐powered irrigation pumps (SIP) during the time of upheaval (COVID‐19 pandemic) in Nepal.

Water, pipes and the cholera pathogen: The colonial politics of germs and water infrastructures in the Philippines

Singapore Journal of Tropical Geography, EarlyView.
This paper examines how the politics of water governance intersected with germ suppression during US colonial rule in the Philippines. Drawing on historical materials and policy documents, we critically trace two interrelated processes of hydroterritorialization through which cholera outbreaks in the early 1900s spurred the production of sanitary ...
