ResourceEcology of fishes on coral reefs
Metadata Thumbnail "The local diversity and global richness of coral reef fishes, along with the diversity manifested in their morphology, behaviour and ecology, provides fascinating and diverse opportunities for study. Reflecting the very latest research in a broad and eve...
ResourceSeascape ecology of fishes on coral reefs
Metadata Thumbnail "Ecological study of coral reef fishes is shifting from a reef patch-centric approach to a broader scale seascape perspective using concepts and techniques from landscape ecology. This change has occurred in response to increasing evidence that many reef?...

ResourceGlobal climate change and coral reefs: Rising temperatures, acidification and the need for resilient reefs
"There is strong international consensus that climate change and ocean acidification are already affecting shallow water corals and their symbiosis with dinoflagellate algae. There are vast areas of deep-sea corals that are also being affected; these larg...
ResourceGlobal climate change and coral reefs: Reef temperature perspectives covering the last century
"Temperatures and thermal stress at reef locations around the globe have generally increased over the past 128 years with regional trends in the range of 0.24-0.59 degrees C per century. For most coral reef regions the levels of thermal stress are unprece...
