The tropical southwest Indian Ocean is a coral biodiversity hotspot, with remote reefs physically connected by larval dispersal through eddies and a complex set of

Integration of population genetics with oceanographic models reveals strong connectivity among coral reefs across Seychelles
Many countries with tropical reef systems face hard choices preserving coral reefs in the face of climate change on limited budgets. One approach to maximising
High-frequency variability dominates potential connectivity between remote coral reefs
Coral larval dispersal establishes connectivity between reefs, but larval fluxes vary over timescales from daily to multidecadal due to oceanographic variability. Using a 2-km-resolution ocean
WINDS: A 1/50° ocean simulation for the southwestern Indian Ocean
Abstract The Western INDian Ocean Simulation (WINDS) is a regional configuration of the Coastal and Regional Ocean Community Model (CROCO) for the southwestern Indian Ocean.
Sources of marine debris for Seychelles and other remote islands in the western Indian Ocean
Abstract Vast quantities of debris are beaching at remote islands in the western Indian Ocean. We carry out marine dispersal simulations incorporating currents, waves, winds,
A Persistent Kuroshio in the Glacial East China Sea and Implications for Coral Paleobiogeography
Abstract The Kuroshio Current is a major hydrographical feature of the modern East China Sea, but it has been suggested that its flow was diverted
