Artificial shorelines lack natural structural complexity across scales (2021)
Journal Article
Lawrence, P. J., Evans, A. J., Jackson-Bué, T., Brooks, P. R., Crowe, T. P., Dozier, A. E., …Davies, A. J. (2021). Artificial shorelines lack natural structural complexity across scales. Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 288(1951), https://doi.org/10.1098/rspb.2021.0329

From microbes to humans, habitat structural complexity plays a direct role in the provision of physical living space, and increased complexity supports higher biodiversity and ecosystem functioning across biomes. Coastal development and the construct... Read More about Artificial shorelines lack natural structural complexity across scales.

Spatial and temporal scales of coral reef fish ecological research and management: a systematic map protocol (2021)
Journal Article
Lawrence, A., Heenan, A., Levine, A., R. Haddaway, N., Powell, F., Wedding, L., …J. Williams, G. (2021). Spatial and temporal scales of coral reef fish ecological research and management: a systematic map protocol. Environmental Evidence, 10, Article 3. https://doi.org/10.1186/s13750-021-00217-z

Coral reefs are rapidly changing in response to local and global stressors. Research to better understand and inform the management of these stressors is burgeoning. However, in situ studies of coral reef ecology are constrained by complex logistics...

Replicating natural topography on marine artificial structures – A novel approach to eco-engineering (2021)
Journal Article
Evans, A. J., Lawrence, P. J., Natanzi, A. S., Moore, P. J., Davies, A. J., Crowe, T. P., …Brooks, P. R. (2021). Replicating natural topography on marine artificial structures – A novel approach to eco-engineering. Ecological Engineering, 160, Article 106144. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ecoleng.2020.106144

Ocean sprawl is a growing threat to marine and coastal ecosystems globally, with wide-ranging consequences for natural habitats and species. Artificial structures built in the marine environment often support less diverse communities than natural roc...
