DOI: 10.1016/j.jembe.2019.151202
Abstract: Abstract Artificial reefs have been shown to support important reef fishes such as red snapper (Lutjanus campechanus [Poey, 1860]), however, few studies have compared fish behavior on artificial and natural habitats. We examined activity levels… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/icesjms/fsae075
Abstract: Human-made structures, particularly artificial reefs, have played an increasingly important role in restoration, conservation, and management efforts aimed at mitigating the detrimental effects of anthropogenic activities on habitats and their associated communities. However, the extent… read more here.

DOI: 10.5343/bms.2023.0109
Abstract: Shipwrecks provide important habitat for reef fishes, but few studies have addressed how fish assemblages on wrecks compare to natural communities on nearby reefs in terms of species composition, diversity, richness, and density, particularly in… read more here.
