Local coral connections within an atoll reef system underlie reef resilience and persistence Open
The recovery of isolated reef systems is a complex process that is usually associated with the supply of coral larvae from distant reefs (or large‐scale connectivity). However, a frequently neglected process is the potential for supply wit…

Hydrodynamic and atmospheric drivers create distinct thermal environments within a coral reef atoll Open
Within coral reefs, different thermal environments can be found at locations separated by less than 100 s of meters and can generate fine-scale patterns of thermal stress and subsequent bleaching. In this study, we use an 11-month record o…

Wave‐Driven Hydrodynamic Processes Over Fringing Reefs With Varying Slopes, Depths, and Roughness: Implications for Coastal Protection Open
Wave breaking on the steep fore‐reef slopes of shallow fringing reefs can be effective at dissipating incident sea‐swell waves prior to reaching reef shorelines. However, wave setup and free infragravity waves generated during the sea‐swel…

Hydrodynamic drivers of fine‐scale connectivity within a coral reef atoll Open
An accurate representation of physical and biological processes is crucial to resolve larval dispersal pathways and characterize connectivity of coral reef ecosystems. We investigate how hydrodynamic forcings drive larval retention rates d…

Wave and Tidally Driven Flow Dynamics Within a Coral Reef Atoll off Northwestern Australia Open
Waves and tides are often the two primary forcing mechanisms responsible for driving hydrodynamic processes within coral reefs worldwide. Although wave‐ and tide‐driven flows are individually well understood, there remain considerable gaps…

Wave and tidally driven flow dynamics within a coral reef atoll off northwestern Australia Open
The dataset contains a combination of field observation and numerical modeling output files used to study the interaction between waves and tides on a coral reef atoll off the North West Shelf of Australia. Data included here is mostly raw…

A Numerical Study of Wave‐Driven Mean Flows and Setup Dynamics at a Coral Reef‐Lagoon System Open
Two‐dimensional mean wave‐driven flow and setup dynamics were investigated at a reef‐lagoon system at Ningaloo Reef, Western Australia, using the numerical wave‐flow model, SWASH. Phase‐resolved numerical simulations of the wave and flow f…

Optimising cool-water injections to reduce thermal stress on coral reefs of the Great Barrier Reef Open
Coral bleaching driven by ocean warming is one of the most visible ecological impacts of climate change and perhaps the greatest threat to the persistence of reefs in the coming decades. In the absence of returning atmospheric greenhouse g…

Nutrient fluxes into an isolated coral reef atoll by tidally driven internal bores Open
Scott Reef is a remote yet biodiverse coral reef atoll, rising from depths > 1000 m on the edge of the continental shelf of northwestern Australia. An intensive 2‐week field study was conducted to assess how physical oceanographic processe…

Hydrodynamics of a Tidally Forced Coral Reef Atoll Open
The hydrodynamics of a tidally forced semi‐enclosed coral reef atoll (North Scott) at the edge of the continental shelf of northwestern Australia were investigated by combining field observations and numerical modeling. The observations re…
