Abstract The success of coral restoration for the critically endangered Acropora palmata is understudied. Here, we examined how habitat and microbiomes influenced survivorship in four genets A. outplanted three reefs. were correlated to reef minimally genet. Carysfort Reef exhibited lowest which lower current velocity a higher relative abundance Rhodobacterales . Higher was present at Pickles highest velocity, North Dry Rocks with shallowest outplant depth. Habitat factors driven by time year such as levels nitrate, nitrite, temperature also increase putative pathogen, Alteromonadales, decrease an uncharacterized core bacteria. We suggest outplanting sites high currents, depths, concentrations nitrate/nitrite survivorship.

ABSTRACT Aquatic ecosystems are ecologically diverse and provide a wealth of ecosystem services to people societies all around the world. However, they threatened by human activities climate change, have experienced significant decline in past decades. Developments aquatic conservation research is therefore critical importance for sustainability species. To investigate temporal trends research, we conducted bibliometric analysis 2785 publications published journal Conservation: Marine Freshwater Ecosystems since its inception 1991 2023. Although outputs proportion open access has increased over time, publication output appears be sensitive global shocks such as Covid‐19 – raising concerns about fragility support structures. In terms citations, delayed but prolonged impact, with core citation window 4–8 years post‐publication. The number multi‐author an average >6 authors 2020. internationality authorship teams also imbalance remains lead authors: Africa, central South America Central Asia still remain under‐represented. A keyword highlights persistent focus on biodiversity, themes change marine management emerging 21st century. These results show how shifting towards more collaborative, international effort, agility respond challenges. Looking future, call improved diversity authorship, disciplinary scope geographical focus. Maintaining nimbleness challenges will keep relevant, greater consideration interdisciplinarity land–sea connectivity accelerate innovation within discipline encourage further collaborative links.

Reef restoration has gained attention as it strategic actions and powerful means in sustaining maintaining coastal ecosystem services. This scientometric study systematically analyzes the current trends research hotspot coral across last five decades (1971–2022). The metadata (12,667 articles with 652,860 cited references) were obtained from Clarivate Web of Science platform through Core Collection database, associated CiteSpace R‐software for further analysis. results indicated that trend is increasing paper/year, United States, Australia, China major contributors to related research. Furthermore, James Cook University, Australia had largest number articles, Consortium Research Libraries Kingdom was most influential institution on restoration. highly keywords are “Great Barrier Reef,” “climate change,” “coral reef,” while “coral,” “model,” “Atlantic.” A total 23 clusters field “phase shift,” “bacterial communities,” restoration,” “symbiotic dinoflagellate,” “stony tissue loss disease,” “bleaching event,” “ocean acidification,” “oyster “quantitative reconstruction” among top cluster size labeled. Early‐stage researcher may use both analysis find topics attractive their future projects. In addition, this contributes toward evaluating recent scientific productivity about well informing researchers policymakers regarding funding, planning, potential collaboration opportunities.

Among marine ecosystems, coral reefs play crucial roles in terms of ecological functions such as biodiversity protection and coastal have significant economic value, estimated at approximately 2.7 trillion USD per year. However, the current state is alarming, with more than 93% ecosystems being damaged primarily by human activity climate change.
