Stable isotope analysis reveals community-level variation in fish trophodynamics across a fringing coral reef A. S. J. Wyatt, A. M. Waite, S. Humphries In contrast to trophodynamic variations, the marked zonation in physical and biological processes across coral reefs and the concomitant changes in habitat | Click for More →
Oceanographic forcing of nutrient uptake and release over a fringing coral reef Alex S. J. Wyatt, James L. Falter, Ryan J. Lowe, Stuart Humphries and Anya M. Waite Nitrate and nitrite (NOx) and phosphate (PO4) dynamics over Ningaloo Reef, Western Australia, are shown to depend on | Click for More →
Effects of Coral Reef Benthic Primary Producers on Dissolved Organic Carbon and Microbial Activity Andreas F. Haas, Craig E. Nelson, Linda Wegley Kelly, Craig A. Carlson, Forest Rohwer, James J.

Uptake of picophytoplankton, bacterioplankton and virioplankton by a fringing coral reef community (Ningaloo Reef, Australia) Nicole L. Patten, Alex S.J. Wyatt, Ryan J. Lowe, Anya M. Waite We examined the importance of picoplankton and virioplankton to reef trophodynamics at Ningaloo Reef, (north-western Australia), in May | Click for More →
Variability in Isotope Discrimination Factors in Coral Reef Fishes: Implications for Diet and Food Web Reconstruction Alex S.J. Wyatt, Stuart Humphries, Anya M. Waite Interpretation of stable isotope ratios of carbon and nitrogen (δ13C and δ15N) is generally based on the assumption that with each | Click for More →
Particulate nutrient fluxes over a fringing coral reef: relevant scales of phytoplankton production and mechanisms of supply Alex S. J. Wyatt, Ryan J. Lowe, Stuart Humphries, Anya M. Waite Seasonal observations of phytoplankton uptake at Ningaloo Reef, Western Australia, reinforce the importance of particulate organic | Click for More →
