Andrew Scott Hoey is a Professor of Marine Ecology at James Cook University's College of Science and Engineering, specializing in coral reef ecosystems. His research focuses on the complex interactions between coral reef fish communities, particularly parrotfishes and rabbitfishes, and their benthic environments, with emphasis on how these relationships are affected by climate change, habitat degradation, and conservation interventions. Hoey's research interests span coral reef fish ecology, climate change impacts on reef systems, coral-algal interactions, and marine conservation. His work has significantly advanced understanding of herbivory dynamics on coral reefs, particularly how fish grazing influences coral resilience and recovery following disturbances. He has documented how changes in fish community structure affect reef resilience and has investigated the mechanisms underlying coral-algal phase shifts. His research demonstrates that not all herbivorous fishes provide equivalent ecological functions, with some species being more effective at controlling macroalgal growth than others. Analysis of Hoey's recent publications reveals a strong focus on contemporary reef challenges including coral bleaching impacts, macroalgal-coral interactions, and the effects of climate change on reef fish distributions and behaviors. His work increasingly incorporates spatial and temporal scales, examining cross-shelf patterns, regional comparisons between the Coral Sea and Great Barrier Reef, and long-term ecological changes. Recent research also explores deep-water and mesophotic reef ecosystems as potential refuges from warming surface waters. Co-editor of the comprehensive volume 'Biology of Parrotfishes' (2018) Lead researcher for multiple Coral Sea Marine Park Coral Reef Health Surveys (2021-2023) Contributor to high-impact global assessments of coral reef status and threats Hoey actively collaborates with researchers across the Indo-Pacific region and contributes to major international research initiatives examining coral reef resilience and conservation strategies.
