Is coral richness related to community resistance to, and recovery from, disturbance?
[Peer-reviewed] A large body of ecological research has focused on how biodiversity influences the stability of communities. Despite this interest, there is still no consensus on whether, or why, diversity influences stability. Researchers therefore tested the hypothesis that species richness is related to community stability (resistance and recovery) in coral reef ecosystems -

I told my colleagues that PeerJ is a journal where they need to publish if they want their paper to be published quickly and with the strict peer review expected from a good journal.
