The sustainability of coral reef fisheries is jeopardized by complex and interacting socio-
ecological stressors that undermine their contribution to food and nutrition security. Climate …

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 …

Distinct zonation of community assemblages among habitats is a ubiquitous feature of coral
reefs. The distribution of roving herbivorous fishes (parrotfishes, surgeonfishes and …

Tropical reefs and the fish relying on them are under increasing pressure. Shallow-reef fish
provide important ecological information in addition to sustaining fisheries, tourism and …

Coral reef ecosystems are at the forefront of biodiversity loss and climate change-mediated
transformations. This is expected to have profound consequences for the functioning of …

We review and develop conceptual models for the bio-transfer of ciguatoxins in food chains
for Platypus Bay and the Great Barrier Reef on the east coast of Australia. Platypus Bay is …

Piscivory is a key ecological function in aquatic ecosystems, mediating energy flow within
trophic networks. However, our understanding of the nature of piscivory is limited; we …

Herbivory is a key process that controls the abundance and accumulation of algal turf on
tropical coral reefs. The capacity of reefs to prevent algal accumulation hinges on the …

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 …

Benthic cyanobacterial mats (BCMs) are becoming increasingly common on coral reefs. In
Fiji, blooms generally occur in nearshore areas during warm months but some are starting to …
