Complex multivariate model predictions for coral diversity with climatic change

Ecosphere, Volume 15, Issue 12, December 2024.
Abstract Models of the future of coral reefs are potentially sensitive to theoretical assumptions, variable selectivity, interactions, and scales. A number of these aspects were evaluated using boosted regression tree models of numbers of coral taxa trained on ~1000 field surveys and 35 spatially complete influential environmental proxies at moderate ...

Influence of reef habitat on coral microbial associations

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 16, Issue 6, December 2024.
In Palau, Micronesia, temperature and pH influence coral‐Symbiodiniaceae associations but do not affect coral microbial community membership across nearshore and offshore reef habitats. Coral colonies near human development exhibited higher microbial diversity, greater bacterial community similarity across genera, and less consistent Symbiodiniaceae ...

Consolidated Checklist of Hard Corals of the Genus Acropora Oken, 1815 (Scleractinia: Acroporidae) in North Borneo, East Malaysia [PDF]

Zootaxa, 2016
Acropora is the most biologically diverse group of reef-building coral, and its richness peaks at the Indo-Malay-Philippine Archipelago, the centre of global coral reef biodiversity. In this paper, we describe the species richness of Acropora fauna of North Borneo, East Malaysia, based on review of literature and as corroborated by voucher specimens ...

Effect of coral‐giant clam artificial reef on coral recruitment: insights for restoration and conservation efforts

Restoration Ecology, Volume 32, Issue 5, July 2024.
Coral recruitment is a vital process for the maintenance and recovery of coral reefs, particularly due to their decline from global change. While it is well established that larval settlement cues significantly influence coral recruitment, the investigation of recruitment success associated with the surrounding community mainly focuses on algae.

The natural recruitment and recovery process of corals at Green Island [PDF]

, 1990
The hard coral community at Green Island Reef is in the early stages of recovery following major damage caused from predation by Acanthaster between 1979 and 1981.

Multi‐Factor Coral Disease Risk: A new product for early warning and management

Ecological Applications, Volume 34, Issue 4, June 2024.
Abstract Ecological forecasts are becoming increasingly valuable tools for conservation and management. However, there are few examples of near‐real‐time forecasting systems that account for the wide range of ecological complexities. We developed a new coral disease ecological forecasting system that explores a suite of ecological relationships and ...

Allelopathic interactions between the brown algal genus Lobophora (Dictyotales, Phaeophyceae) and scleractinian corals [PDF]

, 2016
Allelopathy has been recently suggested as a mechanism by which macroalgae may outcompete corals in damaged reefs. Members of the brown algal genus Lobophora are commonly observed in close contact with scleractinian corals and have been considered ...

Coral recruitment in the Toliara region of southwest Madagascar: Spatio‐temporal variability and implications for reef conservation

Marine Ecology, Volume 45, Issue 2, April 2024.
Abstract Investigating coral recruitment is critical to better understand replenishment and resilience capacities of coral reef ecosystems and to improve their conservation. Here, we examined the spatio‐temporal patterns of coral recruitment and the influence of confamilial adult coral cover in the region of Toliara, southwest Madagascar.
