Missing planktivore functions drive global variation in reef fish productivity

|
By James M. Gahan, Helen Yan Verified, David Bellwood, Graham Edgar, Leo Nankervis, Alexandre C. Siqueira, Rick Stuart-Smith, Sterling B. Tebbett
| Nature Verified
Abstract The functioning of high-diversity ecosystems, such as coral reefs, is intrinsically tied to the integrity and efficiency of the trophic pathways within these systems. Coral reef productivity depends, in part, on the input of external nutrients, primarily zooplankton, that is assimilated by extraordinarily diverse fish communities.

Over a century of global decline in the growth performance of marine fishes - Nature Communications

|
By Helen Yan Verified, Hannah Watkins, Alexandre C. Siqueira, David Bellwood
| Nature Verified
Abstract Human-driven pressures are causing large-scale changes in the ecologies and life histories of fishes. Growth performance is a composite life-history trait that captures the trade-off between two fundamental traits: growth and body size. Here, we assess the impacts of fishing and temperature on the growth performance of marine teleost fishes globally over the last century.

Species abundances surpass richness effects in the biodiversity-ecosystem function relationship across marine fishes - Nature Communications

|
By Helen Yan Verified, Renato A. Morais, David Bellwood
| Nature Verified
Abstract High biological diversity (or biodiversity) is thought to bolster communities against disturbances, leading to higher levels of ecosystem functioning. While the biodiversity-ecosystem function (BEF) relationship is evident in studies equating diversity to species richness, it is still unclear which ecological mechanisms can produce different observational BEF effects.
