Corals Versus the Crown-of-Thorns Sea Star in the Anthropocene
Coral reefs are experiencing rapid transformation under interacting pressures of climate change, direct human impacts, and biological disturbance. Outbreaks of the corallivorous crown-of-thorns sea star (COTS; Acanthaster spp.) are major...

The Baltic Sea: A Unique and Sensitive Ecosystem
The Baltic Sea is a young, semi-enclosed brackish ecosystem shaped by postglacial history; restricted exchange with the North Sea; and strong gradients in salinity, temperature, and oxygen. These conditions have produced a species-poor b...

Topological Approaches in Animal Comparative Genomics
The surge in chromosome-scale genome sequences from across the tree of life, as well as new comparative methods, has made it possible to study the impact of genomic changes on macroevolution. In this review, we discuss the state of anima...
