Coral cover a stronger driver of reef fish trophic biomass than fishing

Garry R. Russ et al.

Summary: Research has shown that coral cover has a greater impact on the trophic structure of coral reef fish assemblages than fishing pressure, especially when environmental disturbances cause a decrease in coral cover. Benthic cover is significantly associated with fish biomass and various trophic components.

The projected degradation of subtropical coral assemblages by recurrent thermal stress

James Cant et al.

Summary: The study revealed that subtropical coral assemblages are significantly affected by thermal stress, with differential shifts in population growth rates and contrasting bleaching responses among taxa. Under high emissions scenarios, coral populations exhibited the lowest growth rates, potentially accelerating the loss of corals in subtropical regions.

Seasonal variation in reef fish assemblages in the environmentally extreme southern Persian/Arabian Gulf

Grace O. Vaughan et al.

Summary: The study found that the abundance and composition of reef fish in the southern Persian/Arabian Gulf are significantly influenced by seasonal temperature changes, with more fish in summer than in winter. Nine key fish species drove the seasonal differences, accounting for 70% of the divergence in community structure between summer and winter.

Long-term ecological changes in fishes and macro-invertebrates in the world's warmest coral reefs

Yu-Jia Lin et al.

Summary: The study found that the coral reef ecosystems in the Arabian Gulf underwent long-term ecological changes following heat shocks, including a phase shift from predominantly reef-building corals to barren grounds. Macro-invertebrates responded rapidly to these changes, while fishes exhibited lagged responses. Increased levels of herbivory may have suppressed macro-algae expansion, leading to the dominance of barren ground.

Growth impacts in a changing ocean: insights from two coral reef fishes in an extreme environment

Daniele D'Agostino et al.

Summary: Determining the life-history consequences for fishes living in extreme and variable environments is crucial in predicting the impacts of climate change. This study compared two common reef fish species in the Arabian Gulf and Oman Sea, finding smaller size-at-age and lower maximum size in the extreme environment. Salinity was identified as the key environmental predictor of interannual growth, with temperature having a weak positive effect on fishes in the Arabian Gulf.
