Ecological baselines are disappearing and it is uncertain how marine reserves, there called fisheries closures, simulate pristine communities. We tested the influence of fisheries closure age, size and compliance on recovery of community biomass and life-history metrics towards a baseline. We used census data from 324 coral reefs, including 41 protected areas ranging between 1 and 45 years of age and 0.28 and 1430 km2, and 36 sites in a remote baseline, the Chagos Archipelago. Fish community-level life histories changed towards larger and later maturing fauna with increasing closure age, size and
compliance.

Report on the fieldwork undertaken on Cousin island between June and October 2014 on the study of the Seychelles Warbler. As part of the Seychelles Warbler Research Group, a partnership between researchers at the Universities of East Anglia and Sheffield in the UK and the University of Groningen in the Netherlands, run in collaboration with Nature Seychelles.
