Fish functional richness is driven by proximity to estuaries and nearby habitats.
Communities exhibit greater functional balance in protected areas, correlating with elevated coral cover.
Ecological processes show no direct link to fish functional diversity, highlighting complexity in reef dynamics.
Ecosystem functioning peaks beyond 25 km from estuaries, correlating with higher trophic level fish and biodiversity.
