Hi, Bert here! (@robert_p_streit) After 4 years in the FunHub as Comms Manager & PostDoc, I'm moving on. Thanks for the fun, follows, likes & celebration of science on social media! My new job will be far less fishy, so I'll leave with this: (from ABC Top5 in '22 @ABCaustralia)
And it is out! If you ever felt an urge to quantitatively study patterns and colours in biology, get excited! 🟡🟢🔵🟣 Function Hub alumn @thehemi65 has just provided a comprehensive introduction and toolbox of how it can be done! Oh, and it's #OpenAcces doi.org/10.1002/ece3.1…

Excited to finally have this paper out after multiple years in the making with @bellwoodlab, @ReefFunctionHub, and @pete_cowman "Analysing biological colour patterns from digital images: An introduction to the current toolbox" onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/ec…
🐟🪸Relationship status of fishes and corals changed to #itscomplicated. 💔

The revelation of weak associations between reef #fish and #corals comes at the heels of this recent paper led by @SiqueiraAleC The paper provides context on this 🐠🪸relationship through the lens of #evolution and is worth a read! Check this #OpenAccess 🗞️@Ecology_Letters

We all simply know that reef fishes NEED corals, right? Well,... PhD student @Pooven_Muruga ran a comprehensive metanalysis on fish-coral associations: "...fishes and corals may be two co-occurring entities within a much more complex ecosystem..." doi.org/10.1038/s41559… 🧵👇

Flying high & diving low! How can we use the best of both worlds? In this #OpenAccess review @LLLutzenkirchen & colleagues compare in-water ecology with remote sensing on reefs. In 199 studies, only 3% use both approaches = more room to unite & prosper. doi.org/10.1007/s00338…

The final chapter of my PhD is out! We explored the patterns of coral bleaching, revealing how small-scale hydrodynamics and colony size shape resilience in individual coral colonies 🪸 Find the paper in Mar Env Res #OpenAccess researchgate.net/publication/37… @ReefFunctionHub
Ever been chilly in the aircon, but sweaty outside? Then you know - small scale temperature regimes matter! How are Porites coral colonies affected by coral bleaching - at fine scales? Find an answer in Juliano's new paper, out in @ELSenviron ⬇️ doi.org/10.1016/j.mare…

Hi, Bert here! (@robert_p_streit) After 4 years in the FunHub as Comms Manager & PostDoc, I'm moving on. Thanks for the fun, follows, likes & celebration of science on social media! My new job will be far less fishy, so I'll leave with this: (from ABC Top5 in '22 @ABCaustralia)
And it is out! If you ever felt an urge to quantitatively study patterns and colours in biology, get excited! 🟡🟢🔵🟣 Function Hub alumn @thehemi65 has just provided a comprehensive introduction and toolbox of how it can be done! Oh, and it's #OpenAcces doi.org/10.1002/ece3.1…
Excited to finally have this paper out after multiple years in the making with @bellwoodlab, @ReefFunctionHub, and @pete_cowman "Analysing biological colour patterns from digital images: An introduction to the current toolbox" onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/ec…

🐟🪸Relationship status of fishes and corals changed to #itscomplicated. 💔
🐟🪸A team of international and North Queensland researchers from JCU have found the link between fishes and corals may not be as strong as scientists had always assumed. @Pooven_Muruga @bellwoodlab Full story📄👉shorturl.at/juGT9
The revelation of weak associations between reef #fish and #corals comes at the heels of this recent paper led by @SiqueiraAleC The paper provides context on this 🐠🪸relationship through the lens of #evolution and is worth a read! Check this #OpenAccess 🗞️@Ecology_Letters
Could the iconic interaction with corals have promoted diversification in reef fishes?🧐 The tricky answer is out now in @Ecology_Letters: it seems that 🐠 diversification is more related to reefs than with 🪸 themselves. 🔗 doi.org/10.1111/ele.14… 📸 François Libert ⬇️🧵 (1/8)
Glad to get this one out😮💨 First paper of my PhD!✅ Also had fun dipping my toes into a little #SciComm coming up with the twitter thread🤞 ➡️shoutout @robert_p_streit🙏 If you're keen on having a read of a little blogpost I wrote - "behind the paper"👇 communities.springernature.com/posts/does-mor…
Relationship status change?! ➡️it's complicated🫠 For his 1st PhD chapter, @Pooven_Muruga reassesses the relationship between reef fishes and hard corals 🐠🪸 With co-authors @SiqueiraAleC & @bellwoodlab, find this #NewPaper in @NatureEcoEvo doi.org/10.1038/s41559… 🧵➡️(1/6)
These findings question our existing assumptions and "caution against assuming a direct and omnipresent relationship between these two iconic animal groups." Find the full paper📑 here: nature.com/articles/s4155… OR here: doi.org/10.1038/s41559… @NatureEcoEvo @jcu @enviro_sci 🧵🔚
Multiple factors (and combinations of factors) were tested, but results consistently showed weak fish-coral associations! So, what does this mean? Perhaps, fishes and corals are not as closely associated as we think? I.e. not as simple as saying more coral = more fish? (5/6)
But what if we look more closely? Some fishes may "depend" on coral more than others? When we look at fish-coral associations for different fish families and trophic groups, the results were still similar➡️weak! No groups had strong associations, not even corallivores🐠! (4/6)
While we would expect the association/correlation between fishes and corals to be strong, the data suggested otherwise!🤯 Correlations (r) between fishes and corals varied even within locations!🌎 Using Bayesian modelling, the "overall" association was positive but weak! (3/6)
How? Using specific criteria, @Pooven_Muruga systematically looked🔍at every paper that documented the association between #fish and #hardcorals on tropical reefs. After MUCH reading🧐, he ended up with over 700 data points spanning 4 decades that matched their criteria. (2/6)

Flying high & diving low! How can we use the best of both worlds? In this #OpenAccess review @LLLutzenkirchen & colleagues compare in-water ecology with remote sensing on reefs. In 199 studies, only 3% use both approaches = more room to unite & prosper. doi.org/10.1007/s00338…
🎉 Exciting news! My second master chapter is now available on @SpringerCORE! 📚 Explore the synergy and uncover the shortcomings between traditional ecology and remote sensing in scaling up observations on benthic changes in coral reefs! 🌊🐠 link.springer.com/article/10.100…
The final chapter of my PhD is out! We explored the patterns of coral bleaching, revealing how small-scale hydrodynamics and colony size shape resilience in individual coral colonies 🪸 Find the paper in Mar Env Res #OpenAccess researchgate.net/publication/37… @ReefFunctionHub
Ever been chilly in the aircon, but sweaty outside? Then you know - small scale temperature regimes matter! How are Porites coral colonies affected by coral bleaching - at fine scales? Find an answer in Juliano's new paper, out in @ELSenviron ⬇️ doi.org/10.1016/j.mare…
