Nitrogen enrichment and speciation in a coral reef lagoon driven by groundwater inputs of bird guano
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2017 at "Journal of Geophysical Research"
DOI: 10.1002/2017jc012929
Abstract: While the influence of river inputs on coral reef biogeochemistry has been investigated, there is limited information on nutrient fluxes related to submarine groundwater discharge (SGD). Here, we investigate whether significant saline groundwater-derived nutrient inputs… read more here.

Aggressive mimicry in a coral reef fish: The prey's view
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2020 at "Ecology and Evolution"
DOI: 10.1002/ece3.6883
Abstract: Abstract Since all forms of mimicry are based on perceptual deception, the sensory ecology of the intended receiver is of paramount importance to test the necessary precondition for mimicry to occur, that is, model‐mimic misidentification,… read more here.

A community and functional comparison of coral and reef fish assemblages between four decades of coastal urbanisation and thermal stress
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2022 at "Ecology and Evolution"
DOI: 10.1002/ece3.8736
Abstract: Abstract Urbanized coral reefs experience anthropogenic disturbances caused by coastal development, pollution, and nutrient runoff, resulting in turbid, marginal conditions in which only certain species can persist. Mortality effects are exacerbated by increasingly regular thermal… read more here.

Trait‐mediated foraging drives patterns of selective predation by native and invasive coral‐reef fishes
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2019 at "Ecosphere"
DOI: 10.1002/ecs2.2752
Abstract: As the geographic ranges of species are increasingly altered by forces such as biological invasion and climate change, when and where will strong biotic interactions arise within reassembling communities? Prey selectivity data are often of… read more here.

Shallow coral reef free ocean carbon enrichment: Novel in situ flumes to manipulate pCO2 on shallow tropical coral reef communities
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2020 at "Limnology and Oceanography: Methods"
DOI: 10.1002/lom3.10349
Abstract: Given the severe implications of climate change and ocean acidification (OA) for marine ecosystems, there is an urgent need to quantify ecosystem function in present‐day conditions to determine the impacts of future changes in environmental… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/lom3.10444
Abstract: Tracking the movement of all individual group members in their natural environment remains a challenging task. Using advances in computer vision and Deep Learning, we developed and tested a semi‐automated in situ tracking system to… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/mbo3.1354
Abstract: Abstract Sponges perform important ecosystem functions, host diverse microbial symbiont communities (microbiomes), and have been increasing in density on Caribbean coral reefs over the last decade. Sponges compete for space in coral reef communities through… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/smll.202207118
Abstract: Superhydrophobic coating has a great application prospect in self-cleaning and oil-water separation but remains challenging for large-scale preparation of robust and weather-resistant superhydrophobic coatings via facile approaches. Herein, this work reports a scalable fabrication of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00248-021-01957-8
Abstract: Reef sediments, the home for microbes with high abundances, provide an important source of carbonates and nutrients for the growth and maintenance of coral reefs. However, there is a lack of systematic research on the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00338-020-01972-0
Abstract: Anthropogenic ocean acidification (OA) is a threat to coral reef fishes, but few studies have investigated responses of high-trophic-level predators, including sharks. We tested the effects of 72-hr exposure to OA-relevant elevated partial pressures of… read more here.
