Wave energy and other environmental drivers as predictors of seeded-coral performance on the great barrier reef Open
Wave energy shapes coral reef communities, yet its influence on early coral survival and growth remains poorly understood, limiting its use in reef restoration planning. This study investigated the survival and growth of three Acropora spe…

Seeded <i>Acropora digitifera</i> corals survive best on wave‐exposed reefs with grazing from small fishes Open
Coral seeding is a restoration technique developed to replenish degraded reefs; however, grazing by herbivorous fish can impede coral survival post deployment. To investigate the impacts of hydrodynamics and fish grazing on seeded‐coral su…

Restoration methods that seed juvenile corals show promise as scalable interventions to promote population persistence through anthropogenic warming. However, challenges including predation by fishes can threaten coral survival. Coral-seed…

Larval precompetency and settlement behaviour in 25 Indo-Pacific coral species Open
Knowledge of coral larval precompetency periods and maximum competency windows is fundamental to understanding coral population dynamics, informing biogeography and connectivity patterns, and predicting reef recovery following disturbances…
