The double burden of climate change
A new study on the effects of climate change in five tropical countries has found fisheries are in more trouble than agriculture, and poor people are in the most danger. Distinguished Profess

Digital data generated by the ARC Centre of Excellence for Coral Reef Studies is managed according to the data management guidelines, policies and procedures of James Cook University, the University of Queensland, Australian National University and the University of Western Australia.
Our four node universities provide members of the ARC Centre of Excellence for Coral Reef Studies with training in the development and use of databases, catalogues and metadata to ensure that digital research data are retained in a durable, indexed and retrievable form.
Digital data and metadata generated by the ARC Centre of Excellence for Coral Reef Studies is shared via multiple platforms. These platforms include external online repositories and databases (e.g. GenBank, eAtlas, Dryad), data journals (e.g. Scientific Data) and the JCU, UQ, ANU and UWA online data repositories:
Research Data JCU James Cook University
UQ eSpace University of Queensland
ANU Data Commons Australian National University
UWA Research Repository University of Western Australia
The online data repositories of JCU, UQ, ANU and UWA are syndicated with the Australian Research Data Commons, and the associated metadata is made available via Research Data Australia to ensure that data is Managed, Connected, Discoverable and Reusable. Data loaded to the node’s online data repositories are provided with a DOI.

For our members
Members of the ARC Centre of Excellence for Coral Reef Studies must comply with the Centre’s Digital Data Management Policy and the research codes of conduct and data management policies and procedures of their institution. The focus of the Centre’s policy is on digital research data, but much of the information can also be applied to non-digital data.
Make sure to include “ARC Centre of Excellence for Coral Reef Studies” as a subject key word when loading your data to the JCU, UQ, ANU or UWA online data repositories. This will enable your data to appear in the Centre’s Research Data Australia (RDA) interface. Contact your university data librarian if you wish to expose data held in external repositories (e.g. GenBank, Dryad) via the Centre’s RDA interface.
There are many great resources available online on data management policy, procedure and practice. Check these out:

James Cook University researchers have found brightly coloured fish are becoming increasingly rare as coral declines, with the phenomenon likely to get worse in the future. Christopher Hemingson, a
Researchers working with stakeholders in the Great Barrier Reef region have come up with ideas on how groups responsible for looking after the reef can operate more effectively when the next bleaching
A new study has delivered a stark warning about the impacts of urban growth on the world’s coral reefs. As coastal developments expand at pace around the world, a year-long study of coral on a reef
Abstract: As marine species adapt to climate change, their heat tolerance will likely be under strong selection. Individual variation in heat tolerance and its heritability underpin the potential fo
Abstract: The Reef Ecology Lab in KAUST’s Red Sea Research Center explores many aspects of movement ecology of marine organisms, ranging from adult migrations to intergenerational larval dispersal
Abstract: Macroalgal meadows are a prominent, yet often maligned component of the tropical seascape. Our work at Ningaloo reef in WA demonstrate that canopy forming macroalgae provide habitat for ad
Abstract: Sharks are generally perceived as strong and fearsome animals. With fossils dating back at least 420 million years, sharks are not only majestic top predators but they also outlived dinosa
Abstract: Connectivity plays a vital role in many ecosystems through its effects on fundamental ecological and evolutionary processes. Its consequences for populations and metapopulations have been
Abstract: Evolution of many eukaryotic organisms is affected by interactions with microbes. Microbial symbioses can ultimately reflect host’s diet, habitat range, and even body shape. However, how
Abstract: The past few years have seen unprecedented coral bleaching and mortality on the Great Barrier Reef (GBR) but the consequences of this on biodiversity are not yet known. This talk will expl
Abstract: Molecular approaches have revolutionised our understanding of the systematics and evolution of most branches on the tree of life, including corals. Over the last twenty-five years molecula
