Habitat-forming cold-water corals show affinity for seamounts in the New Zealand region (2011, background): “…can provide habitat for, or are known to be associated with, some species of fish and invertebrates (McCloskey 1970, Jensen & Frederiksen 1992, Husebø et al. 2002, Jonsson et al. 2004, Buhl-Mortensen & Mortensen 2005, Costello et al. 2005, Stone 2006, Henry & Roberts 2007, Moore et al. 2008,…”
Using 3D photogrammetry from ROV video to quantify cold-water coral reef structural complexity and investigate its influence on biodiversity and community assemblage (2019, background): “…we typically observed most L. eques swimming and H. dactylopterus resting within centimetres of coral colonies indicating their behaviour was linked to the physical structure, likely for shelter and reproduction (Costello et al. 2005; Husebø et al. 2002; Henry et al. 2013; Corbera et al. 2019).”
When the species is also a habitat: Comparing the predictively modelled distributions of Lophelia pertusa and the reef habitat it forms (2011, background): “They may also have an important role as essential fish habitat but this is not yet clear (Husebø et al., 2002; Auster, 2005; Costello et al., 2005).”
Biological structures as a source of habitat heterogeneity and biodiversity on the deep ocean margins (2010, background): “Deep-water coral regions have been suggested to provide shelter, enhanced food supply, spawning habitat and nursery grounds for associated fish species, and are of particular importance in deeper waters where there are fewer three-dimensional habitats (Fosså et al. 2002; Husebø et al. 2002).”
Are deep-water corals important habitats for fishes? (2005, background): “Experimental fi shing comparisons inside and outside of Lophelia reefs off Norway, using longlines and gillnets, confi rmed patterns of increased catch and larger size of redfi sh ( Sebastes marinus), ling ( Molva molva), and tusk ( Brosme brosme) in coral habitats (Husebø et al. 2002).”
Acclimation to ocean acidification during long‐term CO2 exposure in the cold‐water coral Lophelia pertusa (2012, background): “…are important hot- spots of biodiversity because the three-dimensional coral framework provides structural habitat with niches and nursery grounds for a variety of species, including commercial fish species (Fosså et al., 2002; Husebo et al., 2002; Henry & Roberts, 2007; Roberts et al., 2008).”
Trophic relationships in a deep Mediterranean cold-water coral bank (Santa Maria di Leuca, Ionian Sea) (2009, background): “They also act as a potential refuge, nursery and feeding ground for many deep-sea species, including commercial fishes (Husebø et al. 2002, Krieger & Wing 2002, Costello et al. 2005, Ross & Quattrini 2007, D’Onghia et al. 2010).”
Deep-sea sponge grounds enhance diversity and abundance of epibenthic megafauna in the Northwest Atlantic (2013, background): “This is exemplified in studies on deep-water reef-building corals such as Lophelia pertusa, whose reefs exhibit a higher diversity of fish and macrofauna species than surrounding soft bottom communities (Mortensen et al., 1995; Husebo et al., 2002; Costello et al., 2005; Buhl-Mortensen et al., 2010)”
Global biodiversity in cold-water coral reef ecosystems (2017, background): “8 fish in areas without corals (Husebø et al. 2002).”
