Researchers have published the first broad ecological baseline for Bikar and Bokak, two remote atolls in the northern Marshall Islands, describing thriving seabird colonies, native forests, predator-rich reefs and deep-sea communities. The study, published November 11 in Frontiers in Marine Science, draws on surveys carried out in 2023 across land, shallow reefs and deeper waters.
