NEW PAPER “Pioneer generation shapes long-term recovery of coral populations"
Here we challenge what a reef recovery looks like and show:
🪸 Early recruits drive long-term recovery
🪸Later recruits failed to survive
🪸 Apparent recovery masks declining diversity

Pioneer generation shapes long-term recovery of coral populations - Coral Reefs
Reef recovery following a disturbance largely depends on successful coral recruitment and the absence of chronic stressors. However, recent recovery events show increasing homogenization, with dominan...

Scientists call for stronger action to save Indonesia’s vanishing seagrass meadows
SANUR, Indonesia — Indonesia’s seagrass ecosystems are crucial for climate action, biodiversity and coastal livelihoods, yet remain a largely neglected asset, marine scientists and conservation…

Heard of "Darwin's paradox"? It refers to Charles Darwin's observation that coral reefs are wildly productive despite occurring in nutrient-poor tropical oceans. Reefs are, so the story goes, oases in marine deserts 🏝️...

In 2019, we showed that tiny, bottom-dwelling fish can fuel coral reef energy fluxes. In our new paper, we reveal a dramatic dichotomy in their functional role across coral reef habitats separated by a few 100 meters.

Science takes time - a lot of time. Time that is more and more difficult to make available because of increased workloads. Time that exceeds the temporary contracts of postdocs and PhDs.
I'll illustrate this using our paper published in Nature yesterday. 🧵 (1/x)
