Research from Lancaster University and University of Texas reveals that invasive rats on tropical islands are reshaping coral reef food webs.

Cross-ecosystem nutrient transfer can enhance coral reef functioning in an otherwise oligotrophic environment. While the influence of seabird-derived nutrients on coral reef organisms is increasingly recognized, how they are integrated into reef food we...

A new global synthesis published today in Nature Reviews Biodiversity reveals how seabirds act as powerful connectors between marine and terrestrial ecosystems and why protecting seabirds is a powerful opportunity when tackling the triple crises of climate change, failing ocean health, and biodivers...

This study aims to map and predict the distribution of mesophotic coral ecosystems (MCEs) in the Chagos Archipelago, Indian Ocean, using high- and low-resolution bathymetry data. The models, develope...

Coral reefs have been severely affected by anthropogenic stress. Using long term data from the Great Barrier Reef, this study found temporal changes in the latitudinal diversity gradient, and stronger...

We demonstrate a link between foraging habitat and behaviour in an elusive aquatic bird, the red-throated diver (Gavia stellata) across three populations (Finland, Iceland and Scotland) during their ....
