Description:
Coral bleaching events are increasing in frequency and severity, resulting in widespread losses in coral cover. However, branching corals native to hi...
Acute disturbances and chronic pressures have an important and increasing influence on the structure of coral reef communities. For the viability of b...
Beneath the waves, oxygen disappears As plastic waste pollutes the oceans and fish stocks decline, unseen below the surface another problem grows: deo...
There is increasing recognition that low dissolved oxygen (DO) and low pH conditions co-occur in many coastal and open ocean environments. Within temp...
As the world's sixth mass extinction continues, the loss of large animals has widespread effects on biodiversity and ecosystem processes. Research acr...
Salt marshes are dynamic hydrologic systems where terrestrial groundwater, terrestrial surface water, and seawater mix due to bi-directional flows and...
In much of the USA, Phragmites australis is a prolific invasive species in wetland habitats. The spread of Phragmites can significantly alter the stru...
Corpus Christi Bay is a shallow, wind-driven lagoon located on the semi-arid South Texas coast that has a rapidly urbanizing watershed. Projections in...
Coastal wetlands experience acute and chronic disturbances which can affect rates of surface elevation change and vertical accretion of surface sedime...
