Abstract
Lucas Lutzenkirchen explored multiple coral reef functions across broad scales using geospatial and modelling approaches. He assessed traditional coral reef methods of gauging stressor impacts across scales, studied global reef growth drivers, and explored factors influencing herbivorous fish contributions to coastal small-scale fisheries in the Western Atlantic and Indo-Pacific.
