Lionfish (Pterois volitans) Show Social Attraction to Conspecifics When Selecting Shelters
Group formation in animals can arise from two primary mechanisms: individuals aggregating over resources, or individuals socially benefiting from interacting with conspecifics. Distinguishing between...

Great Barrier Reef fish reveal that large-scale macroecological patterns have changed significantly 🐟🐠
We found that changes in latitudinal diversity gradient & rising species turnover were strongly correlated with shifts in coral composition

Emergent patterns of reef fish diversity correlate with coral assemblage shifts along the Great Barrier Reef - Nature Communications
Coral reefs have been severely affected by anthropogenic stress. Using long term data from the Great Barrier Reef, this study found temporal changes in the latitudinal diversity gradient, and stronger...

🚨Excited that the first chapter from my PhD is now out in Marine Biology. Here we show that #lionfish do not show any directional preferences for ambient #soundscapes during diurnal hours.

Had a great weekend at #RCUK2024 with Lancaster University! It was an amazing first conference experience and I was able to engage with the latest research in reef science and conservation. Looking forward to applying what I’ve learnt to my own work!
