Advancing coral reef ecological engineering for large‐scale seascaping on soft seabeds: a comparison of tiered and biomimetic artificial reef designs

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
In a context where entire marine regions are in decline and many coral reef systems have collapsed, creating novel coral reef ecosystems on soft‐bottom seascapes can serve as ecological restoration at a regional scale. However, seascaping reef infrastructure in sandy environments presents unique engineering challenges distinct from traditional reef ...

Coral restoration as economic stimulus: a case study from the Florida Keys (United States)

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Coral reefs are declining at unprecedented rates, threatening the livelihoods of nearly 1 billion people. The cause of the decline is a complex mix of local, regional, and global pressures, which are expected to intensify in the coming years, creating a humanitarian crisis with transnational impacts.

Scuba Diving and Sensing the Deep

open access: yes, 2019
Research into the sensuous practices which constitute the phenomenological foundations of sporting experience has been relatively underdeveloped. This paper seeks to address this state of affairs by portraying the sensory activity involved in doing scuba diving.

Developing coral seeding devices and rapid deployment methods to scale up reef restoration

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Current coral restoration methods are constrained by several factors, including low survival rates and high costs of coral production and deployment, making it difficult to address ecosystem‐wide coral declines. This study introduces a new two‐part coral seeding concept to efficiently settle, transport, and deploy coral spat.

A scalable “holdfast‐graft” method for reseeding threatened giant kelp forests

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Global degradation of natural ecosystems demands urgent action to stem losses and, where possible, identify opportunities for scalable restoration. Giant kelp forests, formed by Macrocystis pyrifera, have declined by ~95% along eastern Tasmania in recent decades, with limited propagule supply constraining recovery.

Sedimentological characterisation is a necessary prerequisite for interpretation of stable carbon isotope ratios of bulk sediment from reefal settings

open access: yesSedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT For most of Earth history, carbonate sediments deposited in shallow marine settings are the only remaining archive of changing biogeochemical cycles. All deep‐sea sediments older than >200 Ma have been subducted and are therefore lost from the record. Stable carbon isotope (δ13C) values of shallow marine carbonates are available for older time
