Automatic Coral Detection with YOLO: A Deep Learning Approach for Efficient and Accurate Coral Reef Monitoring
Coral reefs are vital ecosystems that are under increasing threat due to local human impacts and climate change. Efficient and accurate monitoring of... -
Pore Tensor-Based Constitutive Model of Deep Coral Reef Limestone at High Loading Rates
The buried diagenesis and dolomitization in the deep stratum of coral reef island enable the Coral reef limestone (CRL) to exhibit a significant...
-
Connectivity modelling identifies sources and sinks of coral recruitment within reef clusters
Connectivity aids the recovery of populations following disturbances, such as coral bleaching and tropical cyclones. Coral larval connectivity is a...

Corresponding planktivore and predator spatial distributions in an oceanic coral reef system
Understanding the drivers of food web community structure is a fundamental goal in ecology. While studies indicate that many coral reef predators...
-
Close-range underwater photogrammetry for coral reef ecology: a systematic literature review
Close-range underwater photogrammetry, hereafter referred to as photogrammetry, is rapidly emerging as a new standard in measuring and monitoring...
-
Sustained productivity and the persistence of coral reef fisheries
Fishing-induced biomass depletion is common on coral reefs. Yet, fisheries persist, maintaining the livelihoods of millions of fishers. Understanding...

Coral Reef: A Hot Spot of Marine Biodiversity
Coral reefs are the largest reservoirs of biodiversity on earth: they host 32 of 34 recognized phyla and approximately one third of all marine... -
Space partitioning within groups of social coral reef fish
Site-attached fish that form social groups may face a trade-off between the advantages of group living and the disadvantages related to intra-group...
