Environmental DNA (eDNA) is genetic material that has been shed from macroorganisms. It
has received increased attention as an indirect marker for biodiversity monitoring. This …

Ocean warming and acidification are set to reshuffle life on Earth and alter ecological
processes that underpin the biodiversity, health, productivity, and resilience of ecosystems …

The global decline of coral reefs has led to calls for strategies that reconcile biodiversity
conservation and fisheries benefits. Still, considerable gaps in our understanding of the …

Abstract Setting appropriate conservation strategies in a multi-threat world is a challenging
goal, especially because of natural complexity and budget limitations that prevent effective …

Human impact increasingly alters global ecosystems, often reducing biodiversity and
disrupting the provision of essential ecosystem services to humanity. Therefore, preserving …

An environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding approach has been widely used for
biodiversity monitoring of fishes, although it has rarely been applied to tropical and …

Coral reefs are home to some of the most studied ecological assemblages on the planet.
However, differences in large-scale assembly rules have never been studied using …

Marine protected areas (MPAs) have been used for biodiversity conservation for decades.
However, critics argue that evidence of their economic benefits is weak, particularly with …

A core challenge in ecology is identifying the factors that determine species distribution and
functional diversity of species assemblages. Reef fish are the most diverse group of …

Fish fecundity scales hyperallometrically with body mass, meaning larger females produce
disproportionately more eggs than smaller ones. We explore this relationship beyond the …
