Coral reef habitat quality is declining in many locations because of heatwaves (coral bleaching) and other disturbances. Reef‐building corals provide refuge from predation, so declining complexity restricts the transfer of energy to upper trophic levels.
We use a size‐based ecosystem model to test systematically the effects of refuge at specific sizes and the impacts of distributions of refuges...
Aim
Functional diversity metrics inform how species’ traits relate to ecosystem functions, useful for quantifying how exploitation and disturbance impact ecosystems. We compare the functional diversity of entire fish communities in a shallow‐water region with a deep‐sea region for further insight into the differences between these ecosystem types.
