- Tropicalization of fish assemblages in temperate biogeographic transition zones (2014, background): “Latitudinal range shifts in marine species have already been widely described (Perry et al. 2005, Cheung et al. 2009, 2012, Hawkins et al. 2009, Figueira & Booth 2010, Nicastro et al. 2013, Wernberg et al. 2013) and have been shown to affect ecosystems and fisheries (Sumaila et al. 2011, Cheung et…”
- Tropical rabbitfish and the deforestation of a warming temperate sea (2014, background): “In most of these systems, only the first signs of a ‘tropicalization’ of fish communities have been observed, as indicated by the presence of adults and /or successful overwintering of tropical recruits (Figueira and Booth, 2010).”
- Climate change and disease: bleaching of a chemically defended seaweed (2011, background): “…of these environmental changes have already been observed, with range extensions of tropical fish into temperate waters (Booth & Beretta, 2002; Figuera & Booth, 2010) and sea urchins into Tasmania (Ling et al., 2009) and predictions for this region include continued, accelerated warming.”
- Latitudinal shifts in coral reef fishes: why some species do and others do not shift (2014, background): “All of the tropical vagrants identified in this review, despite being found within temperate habitats, show substantial reductions in abundance associated with low winter-water temperatures (e.g. Choat et al. 1988; Francis et al. 1999; Booth et al. 2007; Figueira and Booth 2010).”
- Sydney Harbour: a review of anthropogenic impacts on the biodiversity and ecosystem function of one of the world’s largest natural harbours (2015, background): “Figueira and Booth (2010) showed the range expansion of tropical fish species being transported southwards in the EAC.”
- Pole-ward range expansion of Acropora spp. along the east coast of Australia (2012, unknown): “For example, a number of tropical fish species have recently established populations in temperate regions along the east coast of Australia, as rises in sea temperatures enable them to survive over winter (Figueria and Booth 2010).”
- Increasing ocean temperature reduces the metabolic performance and swimming ability of coral reef damselfishes (2011, background): “Conversely, warm water species are likely to benefit physiologically and ecologically from increased temperatures in high latitude locations and lead to increased distribution and abundance poleward (Figueira & Booth, 2010).”
