Physicochemical and urban land-use characteristics associated with resistance to precipitation in estuaries vary across scales

Estuaries are subject to frequent stressors, including elevated nutrient loading and extreme hydrologic events, which impact water quality and disrupt ecosystem stability and function. The capacity of an estuary to resist changes in function in response to precipitation events is...

Post-disturbance temperate reef states influence fish contributions to nature and people

Abstract Background Climate-driven habitat reorganization is reshaping the capacity of marine ecosystems to sustain biodiversity and human well-being, with implications for SDG 14 (Life Below Water) and SDG 2 (Zero Hunger). Yet, it remains unclear to what extent post-disturbance...
