Anomaly detection uncovers emerging novelty in coral assemblages of the Great Barrier Reef
Earth's biosphere is being altered by human actions, with all ecosystems, especially coral reefs, rapidly transforming in response to climate change and local stressors. As these changes manifest, ecology needs tools to measure change from past states, termed "ecological novelty", within complex multidimensional data such as taxa-abundance time series. Here we use an anomaly detection method new…
