Long-term effects of the 1998 coral bleaching event on reef fish assemblages (2006, background): “Among the coral dwellers and corallivores, most taxa share well-documented associations with live coral habitat (e.g. Bouchon-Navaro & Bouchon 1989, Allen 1991, Ault & Johnson 1998, Cadoret et al. 1999, Garpe & Öhman 2003, Bozec et al. 2005).”
Diversity and functional importance of coral‐feeding fishes on tropical coral reefs (2008, background): “Centropyge multispinus F Indo-Pacific Anec Garpe et al. (2006), Froese and Pauly (2008)”
The importance of structural complexity in coral reef ecosystems (2012, background): “All studies showed a positive correlation between complexity and branching cover when analysed individually (Bergman et al. 2000; Friedlander et al. 2003; Garpe and Ohman 2003), but only data from Bergman et al. (2000) were significant (ESM Table S2).”
Indo-Pacific seagrass beds and mangroves contribute to fish density and diversity on adjacent coral reefs (2005, background): “Since fish densities are often correlated with the degree of habitat complexity (Luckhurst & Luckhurst 1978, Öhman & Rajasuriya 1998, Garpe & Öhman 2003), the total coral cover (living and dead stony corals, and living soft corals) and the maximum height of the corals (in decimetres) were visually…”
Reef fish community structure of the Fernando de Noronha Archipelago (Equatorial Western Atlantic): the influence of exposure and benthic composition (2011, background): “These environmental characteristics seem to diminish the chance of colonisation and establishment of more specialised reef fishes, which require more specific and stable habitat conditions (e.g. Munday 2000; Garpe and Öhman 2003, 2007).”
Predators drive community structure in coral reef fish assemblages (2015, background): “Furthermore, the complex and shelter-rich substrate of coral reef habitats may mediate predator-prey interactions, and many coral reef fishes are strongly influenced by variation in benthic habitat (Bouchon-Navaro and Bouchon 1989, Garpe and Öhman 2003, Jones et al. 2004).”
Variation in the diversity and composition of benthic taxa as a function of distance offshore, depth and exposure in the Spermonde Archipelago, Indonesia (2005, background): “Depth has been previously shown to be important in structuring marine communities (Garpe and Ohman, 2003; Torruco et al., 2003; Syms and Jones, 2004).”
