Dissolution and Heterotrophy at a Florida Coral Reef One Year After Severe Bleaching

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, Volume 131, Issue 11, November 2026.
Abstract Net ecosystem calcification (NEC) and net ecosystem production (NEP) are key metabolic indicators of reef functioning that underpin habitat formation and biomass assimilation, providing insight into ecosystem responses to environmental stressors.

Bioerosion on shore platforms developed in the Waitemata Formation, Auckland [PDF]

open access: yes, 1968
Bioerosion - the removal of lithic substrate by the erosive activities of living organisms- has not previously been discussed for New Zealand shore platforms.

Micrographs showing the patterns of bioerosion and associated staining/inclusions observed.

open access: yes, 2018
4A) Sample from TB18 with no bioerosion (M49); 4B) Sample from TB18 with arrested bioerosion (M37). The densest bioerosion is seen in an area close to the periosteal surface, here seen as white spots which are holes left after etching of the localized ...

Bioerosion by pit-forming, temperate-reef sea urchins: History, rates and broader implications.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2018
Sea urchins are dominant members of rocky temperate reefs around the world. They often occur in cavities within the rock, and fit so tightly, it is natural to assume they sculpted these "pits." However, there are no experimental data demonstrating they ...

Calcium Carbonate Production, Coral Cover and Diversity along a Distance Gradient from Stone Town: A Case Study from Zanzibar, Tanzania

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2017
Photosymbiotic scleractinian corals are major bioengineers in tropical coastal waters, where they build structurally complex geological features and provide substrata for a manifold of macro and microhabitats. On a local scale, ecological competition and

Advancing Symbiodiniaceae Functional Ecology Through a Trait‐Based Framework

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 9, September 2026.
Symbiodiniaceae dinoflagellates are central to coral reef functioning, supporting primary production, nutrient cycling, calcification, and influencing coral thermal tolerance through intracellular symbiosis. Despite their ecological importance, these symbionts have not yet been incorporated into a formal functional ecology framework due to challenges ...

Seascape Configuration Leads to Spatially Uneven Delivery of Parrotfish Herbivory across a Western Indian Ocean Seascape

open access: yesDiversity, 2020
Spatial configuration of habitat types in multihabitat seascapes influence ecological function through links of biotic and abiotic processes.

Quantifying reef-derived sediment generation: Introducing the SedBudget methodology to support tropical coastline and island vulnerability studies

open access: yesCambridge Prisms: Coastal Futures, 2023
Standardised methodologies for assessing reef-derived sediment generation rates do not presently exist. This represents a major knowledge gap relevant to better predicting reef-derived shoreline sediment supply.
