Chemical analysis of calcified structures continues to flourish, as analytical and
technological advances enable researchers to tap into trace elements and isotopes taken up …

Surgeonfishes have had a long evolutionary history that has been closely linked with coral
reef ecosystems. Today they are a key component of reef fish assemblages, playing a …

Marine heatwaves are triggering coral bleaching events and devastating coral populations
globally, highlighting the need to identify processes promoting coral survival. Here, we show …

Mobile consumers are key vectors of cross-ecosystem nutrients, yet have experienced
population declines which threaten their ability to fill this role. Despite their importance and …

Coral reef fisheries supply nutritious catch to tropical coastal communities, where the quality
of reef seafood is determined by both the rate of biomass production and nutritional value of …

Spatial subsidies increase local productivity and boost consumer abundance beyond the
limits imposed by local resources. In marine ecosystems, deeper water and open ocean …

Global change drives multiple facets of biodiversity including interaction diversity, which is
fundamental for ecosystem functioning. However, studying trophic interactions is …

Coral reef ecosystems are exceptionally complex with a myriad of trophic pathways and
consumer relationships. The application of stable isotopes (SIs) offers numerous …

Eukaryotic microalgae play critical roles in the structure and function of marine food webs.
The contribution of microalgae to food webs can be tracked using compound‐specific …

Early studies in coral reefs showed that simple measurements of ecosystem metabolism
(primary production and ecosystem respiration) were useful for understanding complex reef …
