Vulnerability of Coral Reef Fisheries to a Loss of Structural Complexity

TL;DR: A size spectrum food web model that links the vulnerability of prey to predation with the structural complexity of a reef is developed and it is shown that nonlinearities can be explained by size-structured prey refugia that reduce mortality rates and alter growth rates in different parts of the size spectrum.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Ecological Role of Sharks on Coral Reefs

TL;DR: The ecological roles of sharks on coral reefs are explored and it is found that most reef-associated shark species do not act as apex predators but instead function as mesopredators along with a diverse group of reef fish.
Journal ArticleDOI

Multiple stressors and the functioning of coral reefs

TL;DR: This review highlights the threats to the functioning of reefs from fishing, climate change, and decreasing water quality, and provides guidance for future models of reef functioning, which should include interactions among functional groups and the cumulative effect of stressors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Costs, benefits and the evolution of inducible defences: A case study with Daphnia pulex

TL;DR: This study confirms that a simple theory, based on life history costs and benefits, is a sufficient framework for understanding the ecology and evolution of inducible, threshold traits.
