Hierarchical spatial patterns in Caribbean reef benthic assemblages
Williams, Stacey M.; Chollett, Iliana; Roff, George; Cortés Núñez, Jorge; Dryden, Charlie S.; Mumby, Peter J. (2015)Aim: Coral assemblages on Caribbean reefs have largely been considered to be biogeographically homogeneous at a regional scale. We reassess this in three taxa (corals, sponges and octocorals) using three community attributes ... -
Importance of differentiating Orbicella reefs from gorgonian plains for ecological assessments of Caribbean reefs
Williams, Stacey M.; Mumby, Peter J.; Chollett, Iliana; Cortés Núñez, Jorge (2015)Region-wide assessments of coral cover typically rely on meta-analyses of small-scale ecological studies which have combined different coral reef habitats. This is particularly problematic on forereefs where at least 2 ... -
Reef flattening effects on total richness and species responses in the Caribbean
Newman, Steven P.; Meesters, Erik H.; Dryden, Charlie S.; Williams, Stacey M.; Sánchez, Cristina; Mumby, Peter J.; Polunin, Nicholas V. C. (2015-09-06)1. There has been ongoing flattening of Caribbean coral reefs with the loss of habitat having severe implications for these systems. Complexity and its structural components are important to fish species richness and ... -
Seagrass morphometrics at species level in Moreton Bay, Australia from 2012 to 2013
Samper Villarreal, Jimena; Roelfsema, Chris; Kovacs, Eva M.; Adi, Novi Susetyo; Lyons, Mitchell; Mumby, Peter J.; Lovelock, Catherine E.; Saunders, Megan Irene; Phinn, Stuart R. (2017)Seagrass above, below and total biomass, density and leaf area, length and width were quantified at a species level for 122 sites over three sampling periods in Moreton Bay, Australia. Core samples were collected in two ... -
Vertical accretion and carbon burial rates in subtropical seagrass meadows increased following anthropogenic pressure from European colonisation
Samper Villarreal, Jimena; Mumby, Peter J.; Saunders, Megan Irene; Barry, Linda A.; Zawadzki, Atun; Heijnis, Hendrik; Morelli, Guia; Lovelock, Catherine E. (2018)Seagrass meadows serve as marine carbon sinks, though rates of carbon burial and sediment accretion may vary within and among seagrass meadows due to spatial and temporal variability in sedimentary and biophysical conditions. ...
