Feeding activities by fishes are among the key ecological processes that sustain coral reef
functioning. Those trophic-based processes are known to vary across space and across …

The effects of a spatial area closure on pelagic fish assemblages within the Houtman
Abrolhos Islands were assessed using mid-water pelagic stereo-BRUVs. The spatial area …

Despite calls for networks of no-take sanctuary zones of 'moderate size'(10–100 km 2) to
meet both conservation and resource management objectives, there have been a plethora …

Understanding changes in biodiversity requires the implementation of monitoring programs
encompassing different dimensions of biodiversity through varying sampling techniques. In …

In the marine environment, fish contribute to key ecological processes such as controlling
food‐webs through top‐down impacts, especially on algae. To date, the assessment of fish …

Locally managed marine areas (LMMAs) are increasingly recognised as a key strategy for
small-scale fisheries management across the Indo-Pacific. When effective, LMMAs can …

At present, few studies exist that consider the relationship between species interactions and
key environmental variables, with the added influence of offshore marine renewable energy …

Understanding the link between seamounts and large pelagic species (LPS) may provide
important insights for the conservation of these species in open water ecosystems. The …

Despite rapid growth in the marine tourism sector, the impacts of recreation on the marine
environment are generally not well understood. Most existing studies of marine recreation …

There remains limited knowledge of how offshore windfarm developments influence fish
assemblages, particularly at a local scale around the turbine structures. Considering the …
