Kelp forest ecosystems and their associated ecosystem services are declining around the
world. In response, marine managers are working to restore and counteract these declines …

Kelp forests dominate the rocky coasts of temperate Australia and are the foundation of the
Great Southern Reef. Much like terrestrial forests, these marine forests create complex …

Gradual climate change and discrete extreme climatic events have driven shifts in the
structure of populations and the distribution of species in many marine ecosystems. The …

Global habitat deterioration of marine ecosystems has led to a need for active interventions
to halt or reverse the loss of ecological function. Restoration has historically been a key tool …

Canopy-forming macroalgae play a crucial role in coastal primary production and nutrient
cycling, providing food, shelter, nurseries, and habitat for many vertebrate and invertebrate …

Kelp forests are in decline globally and large-scale intervention could be required to halt the
loss of these valuable ecosystems. To date kelp forest restoration has had limited success …

Marine forests are shrinking globally due to several anthropogenic impacts including climate
change. Forest-forming macroalgae, such as Cystoseira sl species, can be particularly …

Reversing the decline of coastal marine ecosystems will rely extensively on ecological
restoration. This will in turn rely on ensuring adequate supply and survival of propagules …

Anthropogenic activities have caused profound changes globally in biodiversity, species
interactions and ecosystem functions and services. In terrestrial systems, restoration has …

Restoration is considered an effective strategy to accelerate the recovery of biological
communities at local scale. However, the effects of restoration actions in the marine …
