    DescriptionNature Ecology & Evolution Research Briefing (25 September 2023): ‘Depth zonation of reef fish is predictable but disrupted on contemporary coral reefs’. “Data from 5,525 in-water reef fish surveys conducted between 1- and 30-m depth reveal predictable depth-dependent zonation across the Pacific Ocean, particularly in the absence of a local human population. By contrast, relationships between depth and biomass were reduced or absent at populated islands, which suggests a human impact on depth-dependent ecological organization.” https://www.nature.com/articles/s41559-023-02202-w
