Ubiquity of microplastics in coastal seafloor sediments
Microplastic pollutants occur in marine environments globally, however estimates of seafloor
concentrations are rare. Here we apply a novel method to quantify size-graded (0.038–4.0 …

A standardised vocabulary for identifying benthic biota and substrata from underwater imagery: the CATAMI classification scheme
Imagery collected by still and video cameras is an increasingly important tool for minimal
impact, repeatable observations in the marine environment. Data generated from imagery …

Multiscale stability of an intertidal kelp (Postelsia palmaeformis) near its northern range edge through a period of prolonged heatwaves
Abstract Background and Aims Climate change, including gradual changes and extreme
weather events, is driving widespread species losses and range shifts. These climatic …

Density‐dependent feedbacks, hysteresis, and demography of overgrazing sea urchins
Sea urchin grazing can result in regime shift from productive kelp beds to sea urchin barren
grounds that represent an alternative and stable reef state. Here we examine the stability of …

Predicting the distribution of Montastraea reefs using wave exposure
I Chollett, PJ Mumby - Coral Reefs, 2012 - Springer
In the Caribbean region, forereef habitats dominated by Montastraea spp. have the highest
biodiversity and support the largest number of ecosystem processes and services. Here we …

Nearshore ecosystems on seabird islands are potentially influenced by invasive predator eradications and environmental conditions: a case study at the Mercury …
Seabirds maintain island ecosystem function by providing rich marine-derived nutrients to
the islands where they nest. These nutrients are returned to the sea through runoff, fertilizing …
