Nur Arafeh-Dalmau,Nur Arafeh-Dalmau,Nur Arafeh-Dalmau,Gabriela Montaño-Moctezuma,Jose Antonio Martinez,Rodrigo Beas-Luna,David S. Schoeman,David S. Schoeman,Guillermo Torres-Moye +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a recent extreme warming event (2014-2016) of unprecedented magnitude and duration in the California Current System allowed them to evaluate the response of the kelp forest community near its southern (warm) distribution limit.
Journal ArticleDOI
Using Traditional Ecological Knowledge to Improve Holistic Fisheries Management: Transdisciplinary Modeling of a Lagoon Ecosystem of Southern Mexico
TL;DR: In this article, a transdisciplinary modeling approach for the Huave Lagoon System (HLS), Mexico was developed to identify ecosystem-level management alternatives capable of diminishing fishing impacts to the HLS.
Journal ArticleDOI
Predators of juvenile sea urchins and the effect of habitat refuges
Sabrina Clemente,Sabrina Clemente,José Carlos Hernández,José Carlos Hernández,Gabriela Montaño-Moctezuma,Michael P. Russell,Thomas A. Ebert +6 more
TL;DR: Results show that crab predation may be important in organizing intertidal communities, despite multiple ecological mechanisms promoting sea urchin survival, and that substrate refuges significantly reduced mortality on juvenile urchins.
Journal ArticleDOI
Geographic variation in responses of kelp forest communities of the California Current to recent climatic changes.

TL;DR: The results suggest that coastal communities that are dependent on kelp forests will be more impacted in the southern portion of the California Current region, highlighting the urgency of implementing adaptive strategies to sustain livelihoods and ensure food security.

Marine heat waves threaten kelp forests
Nur Arafeh-Dalmau,David S. Schoeman,David S. Schoeman,Gabriela Montaño-Moctezuma,Fiorenza Micheli,Laura Rogers-Bennett,Laura Rogers-Bennett,Carolina Olguín-Jacobson,Hugh P. Possingham,Hugh P. Possingham +9 more
TL;DR: Despite increasing climate-change advocacy and the overwhelming evidence demonstrating social and ecological impacts of climate change, political denial and inaction are jeopardizing society's ability to respond adequately to the multifaceted consequences of the accelerating pace of climate-driven loss of marine forests.
