Resource partitioning among algal turf‐feeding fishes on a tropical artificial shoreline
Abstract Rapid coastal development has led to the proliferation of artificial structures along urban shorelines. Numerous studies have shown that patterns of fish diversity associated with these novel habitats are driven by physical habitat complexity; however, trophic‐mediated processes in shaping these patterns remain poorly understood.

Automated, objective texture segmentation of multibeam echosounder data - Seafloor survey and substrate maps from James Island to Ozette Lake, Washington Outer Coast [PDF]
Without knowledge of basic seafloor characteristics, the ability to address any number of critical marine and/or coastal management issues is diminished. For example, management and conservation of essential fish habitat (EFH), a requirement mandated by

Molecular bases of soft coral reproduction
The early development of the hard coral Acropora millepora has been described at both the morphological and molecular levels, and comparative studies are under way for other Scleractinia. Complementary data on Octocoral embryogenesis are, however, essential for a broader understanding of the different developmental strategies in Cnidaria and their ...

Hidden partnerships in the dark: Cold‐water coral–fish associations in Fiordland, New Zealand
Abstract The ichthyofauna of the Fiordland ecosystems of southern Aotearoa New Zealand was documented during four remotely operating vehicle (ROV) dives between 100 and 350 m depth. A total of 26 fish species were documented within two fiord basins.

Benthic habitat mapping in the Olympic Coast National Marine Sanctuary: Classification of side scan sonar data from survey HMPR-108-2002-01: Version I [PDF]
In September 2002, side scan sonar was used to image a portion of the sea floor in the northern OCNMS and was mosaiced at 1-meter pixel resolution using 100 kHz data collected at 300-meter range scale.

Distribution of Suitable Habitats for Soft Corals (Alcyonacea) Based on Machine Learning
The soft coral order Alcyonacea is a common coral found in the deep sea and plays a crucial role in the deep-sea ecosystem. This study aims to predict the distribution of Alcyonacea in the western Pacific Ocean using four machine learning-based species ...
