In situ growth and bioerosion rates of Lophelia pertusa in a Norwegian fjord and open shelf cold-water coral habitat [PDF]

PeerJ, 2019
Coral reef resilience depends on the balance between carbonate precipitation, leading to reef growth, and carbonate degradation, for example, through bioerosion.

Bioerosión de Sustrato Rocoso por Erizos en Bahía Málaga (Colombia), Pacífico Tropical

Revista de Ciencias, 2011
Los erizos desempeñan un papel importante en el proceso de erosión de sustratos duros del bentos marino. Además de contribuir a la desintegración del sustrato, este proceso proporciona espacio para el asentamiento de epifauna y puede incrementar la ...

Combined Effects of Experimental Acidification and Eutrophication on Reef Sponge Bioerosion Rates

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2017
Health of tropical coral reefs depends largely on the balance between constructive (calcification and cementation) and destructive forces (mechanical-chemical degradation).

Parasitic gastropod bioerosion trace fossil on Cenomanian oysters from Le Mans, France and its ichnologic and taphonomic context [PDF]

Acta Palaeontologica Polonica, 2017
We describe and name Loxolenichnus stellatocinctus Breton and Wisshak igen. et isp. nov., a bioerosion trace fossil on an Upper Cenomanian oyster from Le Mans (France). This trace is attributed here to a parasitic gastropod.

Epipsammic Diatom Cocconesis sp. as New Bioeroder in Scleractinian Coral

Jurnal Ilmiah Perikanan dan Kelautan, 2023
Highlight Research • The endolithic bioeroders were identified. • Cocconeis sp. was new for the science of euendolithic bioeroder of Scleractinian coral. • SEM revealed Cocconeis sp. etch and bore of coral skeleton.

Site-Level Variation in Parrotfish Grazing and Bioerosion as a Function of Species-Specific Feeding Metrics

Diversity, 2020
Parrotfish provide important ecological functions on coral reefs, including the provision of new settlement space through grazing and the generation of sediment through bioerosion of reef substrate.

Bioerosion Research in the South China Sea: Scarce, Patchy and Unrepresentative

Oceans, 2023
Coral reefs are in decline globally, resulting in changed constructive and destructive processes. The South China Sea is a marginal sea that is of high biological importance, but also subjected to extreme local and global pressures.

Photosynthetically stimulated bioerosion in symbiotic sponges : the role of glycerol and oxygen [PDF]

, 2021
On coral reefs, some of the most aggressive calcium carbonate eroders are dinoflagellate-hosting sponges of the genus Cliona. Like in other marine taxa, the influence of these symbiotic microorganisms on the metabolism of the host sponge, and thereby on ...
