New research confronts the elephant in the room – the ‘trilemma’ of population growth, economic growth and environmental sustainability – and reveals the vast incompatibili...
A new study has found that nearly half of fishers from seven countries had witnessed someone poaching in marine protected areas in the past year and most of them did nothing about ...
The Great Barrier Reef is losing its ability to recover from disturbances, but effective local management could revive its capacity to bounce back.Scientists at The University ...
Rat control should be considered an urgent conservation priority on many remote tropical islands to protect vulnerable coral reefs, according to an international team of scientists...
Tropical oceans teem with the dazzle and flash of colourful reef fishes, and contain far more species than the cold ocean waters found at high latitudes. This “latitudinal divers...

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 improveme...
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 fl...
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 ...
Corals growing in high-latitude reefs in Western Australia can regulate their internal chemistry to promote growth under cooler temperatures, according to new research at the ARC C...

Abstract: Characterization of genomic biodiversity through comprehensive species sampling has the potential to change our understanding of evolution. To study evolution across a major vertebrate cl
Abstract: There are a number of competing definitions of anomalous ‘novel’ communities, either via the ‘novel ecosystem hypothesis’ derived from restoration ecology, or as ‘no-analogue
Abstract: Ecosystem accessibility, through road networks, is the main driver of their conditions, with the most accessible ecosystems being most at risk of resource depletion. To date, measuring
Abstract:Whether and how conservation ideas and practices spread can have major impacts on both people and ecosystems. Mbaru’s project examines how people adopt conservation initiatives but also
Abstract: The long-standing paradigm that ecology and evolution play out on different timescales is increasingly challenged by recent studies that show real-time interaction of the two. Similarly
Abstract:Climate change is severely modifying the structure and function of marine and coastal ecosystems worldwide. In the Mediterranean Sea the ongoing warming have been linked to increased mass
Abstract: Anthropogenic emissions are driving global climate change, which is resulting in the warming and acidification of the world’s oceans. The current changes have displayed a range of neg
Abstract:In fisheries management—as in environmental governance more generally—regulatory arrangements that are thought to be helpful in some contexts frequently become panaceas or, in other w
