Simple Summary The study explores the use of Baited Remote Underwater Video Systems
(BRUVS) as a non-invasive alternative to traditional capture-based surveys for studying …

Shark abundances are decreasing on many coral reefs, but the ecosystem effects of this loss
are poorly understood. Rays are a prevalent mesopredator in tropical coral reef ecosystems …

Our understanding of the ecology of sharks and other highly mobile marine species often
relies on fishery‐dependent data or extractive fishery‐independent techniques that can …

Artificial reefs continue to be deployed in coastal areas to enhance local fisheries. An
important factor influencing the success of artificial reefs may be the provision of refuge for …

Baited remote underwater video systems are becoming a widely adopted tool for sampling
fish assemblages. One of the outstanding knowledge gaps associated with this technique is …

Aim Evaluating the effectiveness of marine reserves in achieving conservation goals is
challenged by the decadal scales over which biological systems respond following …

Preserving biodiversity over time is a pressing challenge for conservation science. A key
goal of marine protected areas (MPAs) is to maintain stability in species composition, via …

In recent decades, the abundance of sharks in the world's oceans has decreased due to
overexploitation by commercial fisheries. Over this same period, sharks have been …

Baited remote underwater stereo-video systems (stereo-BRUVs) are commonly used to
sample fish assemblages across areas of differing fish densities with little consideration of …

Networks of no-take marine reserves and partially-protected areas (with limited fishing) are
being increasingly promoted as a means of conserving biodiversity. We examined changes …
