Published in 2017 at "Environmental Management"

DOI: 10.1007/s00267-017-0932-2

Abstract: Water quality outcomes affecting Australia’s Great Barrier Reef (GBR) are governed by multi-level and multi-party decision-making that influences forested and agricultural landscapes. With international concern about the GBR’s declining ecological health, this paper identifies and… read more here.

Published in 2019 at "Coral Reefs"

DOI: 10.1007/s00338-019-01829-1

Abstract: Great Barrier Reef (GBR) marine park managers rely on seasonal forecasts of sea surface temperature (SST) to better inform and coordinate their management responses to mass coral bleaching events. The Bureau of Meteorology’s new seasonal… read more here.

Published in 2020 at "Coral Reefs"

DOI: 10.1007/s00338-020-01929-3

Abstract: The Great Barrier Reef (GBR) is of immense biological, cultural and economic importance, but has also rapidly degraded over the last 30 years. Improved spatial information on reef geomorphic zonation and benthic cover type (including… read more here.

Published in 2025 at "Coral Reefs"

DOI: 10.1007/s00338-025-02628-7

Abstract: The Great Barrier Reef (GBR) is assumed to be a tectonically stable area, but recent studies show that neotectonic activity could have affected the geomorphology and evolution of the coral reefs. We used bathymetry, free-air… read more here.

Published in 2024 at "Environmental Monitoring and Assessment"

DOI: 10.1007/s10661-024-12344-4

Abstract: Disturbance-induced rubble accumulations are described as “killing fields” on coral reefs as coral recruits suffer high post-settlement mortality, creating a bottleneck for reef recovery. The increasing frequency of coral bleaching events, that can generate rubble… read more here.

Published in 2017 at "Marine Biodiversity"

DOI: 10.1007/s12526-017-0819-8

Abstract: To date, more than 81 species of tropical coral reef fish have been reported to hybridize in nature, spanning multiple families, including the Chaetodontidae, Pomacanthidae, and Labridae. Hybridization, however, is seemingly rare among benthic nesting… read more here.
