A simple habitat assessment score (HAS) was designed to assess habitat complexity across
several different shallow tropical marine habitats including sandy patches, algal beds …

What are the effects of no-take marine reserves on trophic relationships of coral reef fish?
Previous studies often have lacked detailed dietary information on major predators, and …

The composition and functionality of ecologically important herbivorous fish assemblages
were examined throughout much of Australia's Great Barrier Reef (GBR). Diversity and …

The density and biomass of two coral reef fish species targeted by line fishers, Plectropomus
maculatus and Lutjanus carponotatus, have increased within no-take marine protected …

Extensive limestone reefs are a characteristic feature of much of the coastline of Western
Australia, and potentially represent a major habitat feature influencing the structure of the …

This study used underwater visual census techniques to quantify the distribution,
abundance, fork lengths and biomass of scarid fishes on multiple reefs across the …

Onshore to offshore gradients in marine assemblages have been well documented on coral
reefs, with most studies showing a distinct separation between onshore and offshore …

Habitat degradation and fishing are major drivers of temporal and spatial changes in fish
communities. The independent effects of these drivers are well documented, but the relative …

Understanding drivers behind patterns of functionally important groups of fishes is crucial for
successful management and conservation of tropical seascapes. Herbivorous fishes are the …

Patterns of abundance of large piscivorous fish (> 200 mm TL) were documented at two
spatial and four temporal scales within the main lagoon of One Tree Reef on Australia's …
