OPINION Moving beyond heritability in the search for coral adaptive potential 📄 bit.ly/3UIgfCK @dcceew @UQScience Tom Richards Katrina McGuigan Adriana Humanes Peter Mumby @CRiginos #RRAP


From our Coastal and #MarineEcology track: What would it take to keep #CrownOfThornsStarfish from decimating #GreatBarrierReef corals? A new study models culling & climate scenarios doi.org/10.1002/ecs2.4… #GreatBarrierReef #CoTSControl #OpenAccess Peter Mumby Chris Roelfsema



Small refuges are vital to #CoralReefs, enhancing fish productivity and system resilience 🐠 New research by VUW Marine Ecology and Ecosystem Modelling Lab delves into refuge size, informing artificial reef design and habitat management 🪸 Read it here: doi.org/10.1111/1365-2…


Pocilloporid stock-recruitment relationships exist at a small scale, and seem to be impacted by thermal stress. Thanks Peter Mumby for the exciting collab...stay tuned for more cool research from this reef tract! 🪸 Palau International Coral Reef Center (PICRC) doi.org/10.5343/bms.20…

Some deeper areas of the Great Barrier Reef are insulated from harmful heatwaves .. but researchers from @UQScience and University of Exeter say that protection will be lost if global warming continues. 🔗brnw.ch/21wID6E Peter Mumby #drjennifermcwhorter

🌿🐟 #Galapagos mangroves are vital reef #fishnurseries. Juvenile fish thrive in these habitats, boosting populations of key reef species. 🌊Protecting mangroves is crucial for marine conservation & fisheries management! #conservation bit.ly/meps_747_99 Octavio Aburto


Can coral adapt fast enough to cope with warming oceans? #UQ's Professor Peter Mumby and a team of international researchers modelled the impact of different scenarios of climate change on coral to find out and the result was mixed. @UQScience🐠 brnw.ch/21wP3Pp

Research led by #UQ reveals 10 metres is crucial for coral spawning, after that the chance of success declines rapidly. Prof Peter Mumby says climate change impacts are reducing coral density and if specimens end up too far apart, they won't reproduce. brnw.ch/21wPsgc

Allee effects require corals to lie within a few metres of their neighbours to achieve successful fertilisation. doi.org/10.1073/pnas.2… open access Gerard Ricardo Christopher Doropoulos Palau International Coral Reef Center (PICRC)


Hi folks. I've migrated to bluesky Peter Mumby.bsky.social to avoid the right wing nonsense promoted by the owner of X. I'll keep this for now. See you there! And happy New year!

Finally out on Springer Coral Reefs with my geology-oceanography-ecology hybrid paper. Ready to dig deeper into this approach over the next few years of PhD with Peter Mumby UQ Science Palau International Coral Reef Center (PICRC) The best is yet to come! doi.org/10.1007/s00338…
