▪ Abstract We review the evidence of regime shifts in terrestrial and aquatic environments in
relation to resilience of complex adaptive ecosystems and the functional roles of biological …

Temperate Australia is a global hotspot for marine biodiversity and its waters have
experienced well-above global average rates of ocean warming. We review the observed …

Over the centuries, land reclamation, coastal development, overfishing and pollution have
nearly eliminated European wetlands, seagrass meadows, shellfish beds, biogenic reefs …

Identifying the type and strength of interactions between local anthropogenic and other
stressors can help to set achievable management targets for degraded marine ecosystems …

Rocky shores occur at the interface of the land and sea. Typically they are open ecosystems,
with steep environmental gradients. Their accessibility to man has rendered them …

Receiving coastal waters and estuaries are among the most nutrient‐enriched environments
on earth, and one of the symptoms of the resulting eutrophication is the proliferation of …

Anthropogenic disturbances affect natural populations and assemblages by interacting with
fundamental ecological processes. Field experiments simulating the effects of human …

Seaweed population biology has received far less attention than trophic dynamics, yet is
critically important in establishing and maintaining algal communities. Complex life histories …

Temperature is one of the most important factors controlling the biogeographic distribution of
seaweeds and is expected to increase due to the rise in anthropogenic greenhouse gas …

Climate‐driven change represents the cumulative effect of global through local‐scale
conditions, and understanding their manifestation at local scales can empower local …
