Parrotfish are key agents of bioerosion and sediment production in coral reef ecosystems;
however, their dietary targets and therefore potential sources of variation in carbonate …

With over 600 valid species, the wrasses (family Labridae) are among the largest and most
successful families of the marine teleosts. They feature prominently on coral reefs where …

Drylands soils worldwide are naturally colonized by microbial communities known as
biocrusts. These soil microbiomes render important ecosystem services associated with soil …

Terrestrial cyanobacteria are extremely diverse. In urban areas, they can be found as black
stains on the surface of building walls, stone monuments, or man-made structures. Many of …
