Species distribution models of ESA-listed corals highlight niche differences among taxa that may guide recovery planning

Understanding the biogeography of living marine resources is essential for informed management, particularly in data-limited environments. Here, we use two corals listed under the U.S. Endangered Species Act (ESA) around Tutuila, American Samoa, to evaluate a transferable workflow that combines presence-only occurr...

The builder’s legacy: persistent reef structure creates a window for coral recovery after adult loss

Coral reef recovery depends on successful juvenile recruitment, yet which local factors govern early coral demography remains poorly resolved. Adult coral cover and reef structural complexity are widely hypothesized to regulate juvenile success, but their independent and interactive effects have not been mechanisticall...

PICOGRAM - informing coral reef resilience-based management through prediction of individual coral organismal growth, recruitment, and mortality

Coral reef science and management are increasingly relying on imagery-based methods to expand monitoring capacity and improve the assessment of reef condition. However, scalable monitoring requires coral colony-scale segmentation from high-resolution underwater imagery and orthomosaic-derived survey products, while d...
