A massive study of nearly 1800 tropical coral reefs around the world has found that marine reserves near heavily populated areas struggle to do their job - but are a vast improvement over having no pr
Many coral reefs will be unable to keep growing fast enough to keep up with rising sea levels, leaving tropical coastlines and low-lying islands exposed to increased erosion and flooding risk, new res
A two-year study has found the amount of algae on a coral reef is influenced by interaction between light and temperature, as well as by human impacts. Global studies have long linked human activit
Abstract: Majority of the human population live in the narrow coastal regions where anthropogenic impact on natural environments is at its highest. Over the last century, the Australian coastline ex
Abstract: Small-scale fisheries communities have been facing major conflicts related to economic development projects around the world. These projects are responsible for marine habitat loss and sp
Abstract: The processes that drive speciation in the marine environment are a constant source of debate among evolutionary biologists. Geographic isolation is considered the primary evolutionary forc
Abstract: Poor water quality significantly affects coral reef ecosystem function by causing shifts in species composition and size structures, and negatively impacting the feeding, growth and devel
Abstract: To best manage a protected area, a knowledge of the ‘real estate’ is considered essential. Recent advances in technology has allowed for the development of habitat mapping for the ful
Abstract: The current diversity of ecological systems is a result of complex interactions between biotic and abiotic regulators acting in space and time. While abiotic processes tend to influence b
Abstract: Connectivity between coral reefs is critical to ensure their resilience and persistence against disturbances. It is driven by ocean currents, which often have very complex patterns within
Abstract: Two epigenomic targets that potentially link environmental exposures to chemical and physical agents early in development to adult disease susceptibility are imprinted genes and those wit
