Status of Benthos and Reef Fish Communities in Pujada Bay, Davao Oriental, Mindanao
Davao Research Journal, 2012 Coral reef resources, particularly corals, macrobenthos and reef fish in Pujada Bay in the southeastern coast of Mindanao were assessed in 2002 to determine their status. A one-shot standard survey methods of corals and their associate fish was conducted

Thermal stress induces persistently altered coral reef fish assemblages
Global Change Biology, 2019 Ecological communities are reorganizing in response to warming temperatures. For continuous ocean habitats this reorganization is characterized by large‐scale species redistribution, but for tropical discontinuous habitats such as coral reefs, spatial ...

Regional Reef Fish Survey Design and Scaling Using High-Resolution Mapping and Analysis
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021 Coral reefs are undergoing changes caused by coastal development, resource use, and climate change. The extent and rate of reef change demand robust and spatially explicit monitoring to support management and conservation decision-making.

Habitat specialization in tropical continental shelf demersal fish assemblages. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 The implications of shallow water impacts such as fishing and climate change on fish assemblages are generally considered in isolation from the distribution and abundance of these fish assemblages in adjacent deeper waters.

PLoS ONE, 2018 The effect of a pollutant on the base of the food web can have knock-on effects for trophic structure and ecosystem functioning. In this study we assess the effect of microplastic exposure on juveniles of a planktivorous fish (Acanthochromis polyacanthus)

Interactions between coral restoration and fish assemblages: implications for reef management.
Journal of Fish Biology, 2020 Corals create complex reef structures that provide both habitat and food for many fish species. Due to numerous natural and anthropogenic threats, many coral reefs are currently being degraded, endangering the fish assemblages they support.

A Global Analysis of the Relationship between Farmed Seaweed Production and Herbivorous Fish Catch. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 Globally, farmed seaweed production is expanding rapidly in shallow marine habitats. While seaweed farming provides vital income to millions of artisanal farmers, it can negatively impact shallow coral reef and seagrass habitats. However, seaweed farming

CORAL‐ASSOCIATED REEF FISHES [PDF]
The Bulletin of the Ecological Society of America, 2011 Many organisms are in decline due to the degradation of their natural habitat. Although it is often assumed that habitat loss and fragmentation are the cause of these declines, the independent effects of these two processes are rarely known. Using an array of experimental patch reefs, we measured and compared the effects of habitat loss and ...

Reef fish communities are spooked by scuba surveys and may take hours to recover
PeerJ, 2018 Ecological monitoring programs typically aim to detect changes in the abundance of species of conservation concern or which reflect system status.
