Effects of reduced dissolved oxygen concentrations on physiology and fluorescence of hermatypic corals and benthic algae. [PDF]
, 2014 While shifts from coral to seaweed dominance have become increasingly common on coral reefs and factors triggering these shifts successively identified, the primary mechanisms involved in coral-algae interactions remain unclear. Amongst various potential

Region-wide temporal and spatial variation in Caribbean reef architecture: is coral cover the whole story? [PDF]
, 2010 The architectural complexity of coral reefs is largely generated by reef-building corals, yet the effects of current regional-scale declines in coral cover on reef complexity are poorly understood.

Spatial distribution and feeding substrate of butterflyfishes (family Chaetodontidae) on an Okinawan coral reef [PDF]
PeerJ, 2020 Coral reefs support diverse communities, and relationships among organisms within these communities are quite complex. Among the relationships, clarifying the habitat association and foraging substrate selection relative to habitat characteristics is of ...
