A Spatial Baseline of China's Blue Carbon Stocks for Improved Monitoring, Management, and Protection
Earth's FutureBlue carbon ecosystems (BCEs) exhibit remarkable capacities for organic carbon (C) storage, making them a promising nature‐based climate solution. However, the lack of robust, spatially explicit estimates of C stocks in BCEs presents a major challenge to

Wayward youth: how maturity, reproduction and seaweed drive snapper (Lutjanus spp.) habitat shifts
Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.Abstract Despite snappers' (family Lutjanidae) commercial and ecological significance, knowledge gaps remain regarding life history, ontogeny and ecology across their range in the Caribbean and south Atlantic. There is also a need to explore the efficacy of marine protected areas (MPAs) as a tool for enhancing nursery and spawning habitat conservation ...

Epibionts and Epiphytes in Seagrass Habitats: A Global Analysis of Their Ecological Roles
SciSeagrass ecosystems support complex biological interactions that shape marine community structure and ecosystem functioning. Thanks to their structural complexity, they support heterogeneous communities and interact with associated benthic invertebrates ...
