Niche space of corals along the Florida reef tract.

PLoS ONE, 2020
Over the last three decades corals have declined precipitously in the Florida Keys. Their population decline has prompted restoration effort. Yet, little effort has been invested in understanding the contemporary niche spaces of coral species, which ...

Discovery of Genetically Distinct, Sympatric Coral Lineages With Temporal but Not Gametic Reproductive Isolation

Molecular Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 22, November 2025.
ABSTRACT Coral species abundance and biodiversity estimates are typically based on colony macromorphology. However, such measurements often underestimate the true diversity within coral communities because morphology does not necessarily reflect behavioral or genetic divergence. We previously reported on the unusual spawning behavior of the brain coral

Twenty Years of Change in a Southeast Florida Acropora Cervicornis Thicket

, 2023
Acropora cervicornis is a species of stony coral that can exist in large thickets that provide functionally unique habitat. However, populations have declined by 98% in some areas of the Caribbean. Even in death, the structure from an A.

A Coral Biomineralization Model for Dual Clumped Isotopes

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 26, Issue 9, September 2025.
Abstract Corals exhibit larger and more variable deviations from equilibrium in stable isotope composition (δ13 ${\delta }^{13}$C, δ18 ${\delta }^{18}$O, Δ47 ${{\Delta }}_{47}$ and Δ48 ${{\Delta }}_{48}$) than most marine biocalcifiers. The disequilibrium isotope effects complicate paleoclimate applications but offer a window into biocalcification ...

"Acropora cervicornis" (Lamarck, 1816) spawning at Guanahacabibes National Park, Western Cuba.

Revista de Investigaciones Marinas, 2022
Coral reefs are in decline, expecting to get even worse if protection and restoration actions are not established immediately. Coral restoration´s efforts assist the recovering of coral colonies in degraded areas of the reef. Although it has been proven

Coral Restoration in the Omics Era: Development of Point‐of‐Care Tools for Monitoring Disease, Reproduction, and Thermal Stress

BioEssays, Volume 47, Issue 6, June 2025.
Shown are different multi‐omics approaches that are used to identify potential biomarkers of coral health and disease. The integration of these data streams, using cutting‐edge molecular diagnostic technologies, including colorimetric dipsticks, lateral flow assays, and colorimetric LAMP (loop‐mediated isothermal amplification), holds the promise to ...

Discovery of Late Holocene‐aged Acropora palmata reefs in Dry Tortugas National Park, Florida, USA: The past as a key to the future?

The Depositional Record, Volume 11, Issue 3, Page 808-828, June 2025.
Emblematic of global coral‐reef ecosystem decline, the coral ecosystem‐engineer Acropora palmata is now rare throughout much of the western Atlantic. We report for the first time, a significant record of late‐Holocene A. palmata populations that existed from ~4500 to 375 years before present in the Dry Tortugas, FL, USA.

An examination of resistance to disease by genotype in Acropora palmata and Acropora cervicornis

, 2018
The goal of this study is to expand on a previous NOAA study analyzing the resistance of different genotypes of Acropora cervicornis and Acropora palmata to disease.
