Seeing the forest for the coral trees: involvement and perceptions of reef threats among coral restoration volunteers in Roatan, Honduras<\/a><\/h4>\t\t

Despite the global expansion of coral restoration initiatives that depend on volunteer divers in supporting these programs, research exploring their motivations, sentiments and knowledge remains scarce. This study employed a mixed-methods analysis of surveys (n\u00a0=\u00a083) and interviews (n\u00a0=\u00a015) of a heterogeneous population of coral restoration volunteers and a control group of divers in Roatan, Honduras… Continue Reading →<\/a><\/p>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>

SCUBA diver behavior, diver carrying capacity and its implications for sustainable reef management<\/a><\/h4>\t\t

Dive into our most recent study on dive site carrying capacity. “The results of this study highlight the critical importance of assessing diver carrying capacity to protect the reef. Various factors, including certification levels and lionfish spearfishing, influence this capacity. Scaling up these analyses across the region and reassessing them periodically is essential. This adaptive… Continue Reading →<\/a><\/p>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>

Evaluating the spread of stony coral tissue loss disease in the Bay Islands, Honduras<\/a><\/h4>\t\t

Current ecological theory predicts that random networks with dispersal shortcuts connecting distant sites can promote persistence when there is no capacity for evolution. This paper demonstrates that incorporating evolution and environmental heterogeneity fundamentally alters theoretical predictions regarding persistence in ecological networks.<\/p>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>

Integrated watershed management solutions for healthy coastal ecosystems and people<\/a><\/h4>\t\t

Tropical coastal ecosystems are declining globally due to human activities, primarily poor water quality from land-based sources. This review highlights the impact of sediments, nutrients, chemicals, and pathogens on coastal ecosystems, especially coral reefs, and on human health through disease transmission, reduced food availability, and food poisoning. Integrated watershed management (IWM) is proposed as a… Continue Reading →<\/a><\/p>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>
