Earliest fossil record of pollen-foraging megachiline beesNARA Subscribed
Stony coral tissue loss disease (SCTLD) has caused unprecedented coral mortality across Florida’s Coral Reef (FCR) since 2014, raising concerns about whether coral restoration can succeed under chronic disease conditions and whether outplanting activities may increase disease transmission risk. As the disease transitioned from epizootic outbreak to enzootic persistence, we conducted a large-scale experimental outplanting to as...
Success of restoration strategies in preventing extirpation of 2 critically endangered coral speciesNARA Subscribed
An unprecedented marine heatwave in 2023 caused widespread coral bleaching and mortality throughout the Caribbean. In the Florida Keys (USA), 2 foundation species, elkhorn coral ( Acropora palmata ) and staghorn coral ( Acropora cervicornis ), were severely affected. These species have been the primary focus of reef restoration in Florida for decades. Substantial losses of these species occurred in outplanted populations, in o...
The need for ocean information has never been greater. From climate change to food security and extreme events, we need to understand the role of the ocean and better predict change and impact. This is only possible with the sustained collection of a key set of ocean observations. The Global Ocean Observing System (GOOS) coordinates international efforts to collect these Essential Ocean Variables (EOVs), which span physics, bi...
Exploring the value of ecosystem services at health clinic gardens in a South African contextNARA Subscribed
Ecosystem services (ESs) valuation is important for advancing biodiversity objectives and investing in green infrastructure (GI) establishment. Little is known about the potential of health clinic gardens (HCGs) to provide ESs and their potential values. This study sought to determine the plant and bird species composition and potential value of ESs provided by 32 HCGs in two South African district municipalities. HCG sizes ra...
