Reflections: Spectral Investigation of Black Band Disease in Hawaiian Corals

Remote Sensing
Coral reefs are essential to the cultural, ecological, and economic well-being of Hawai‘i’s communities, yet they face increasing threats from environmental changes and localized stressors, including coral disease. Detecting coral disease often relies on

Arnfried Antonius, coral diseases, and the AMLC

Revista de Biología Tropical, 2012
The study of coral diseases, coral pathogens, and the effects of diseases on tropical and subtropical coral reefs are all current, high-profile research areas. This interest has grown steadily since the first report of a coral disease in 1973. The author

Can Shading Drive the Transition from Black Band Disease to a Cyanobacterial Patch-like Stage in Montipora Corals?

Diversity
Black band disease (BBD), which overgrows and kills scleractinian coral, is known to have various phases. The initial phase is the cyanobacterial patches (CPs) phase, followed by the intermediate phase (IP), and finally the mature BBD phase.

Computational intelligence model for predicting the compressive strength of FRP‐confined concrete column

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract Fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) wrapping technology is commonly used to enhance the compressive strength (CS) of reinforced concrete (RC) members. Accurate prediction of the compressive strength of FRP‐confined concrete columns is crucial for optimizing structural design and helps reduce the time and costs associated with physical testing ...

Dietary resilience of coral reef fishes to habitat degradation

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Metabarcoding of gut contents shows that two common benthic‐feeding reef fishes with different feeding stratgies—a butterflyfish (Chaetodon capistratus) and a hamlet (Hypoplectrus puella)—shift diets on degraded reefs. These shifts mirror contrasting patterns in body condition: butterflyfish showed strong individual variation, whereas condition was ...

Crustaceans associated with Cnidaria, Bivalvia, Echinoidea and Pisces at São Tomé and Príncipe islands [PDF]

, 2008
Symbiotic crustaceans were searched for at sea anemones (Actiniaria), encrusting anemones (Zoantharia), horny coral (Gorgonaria), black coral (Antipatharia), bivalves (Bivalvia), and sea urchins (Echinoidea) at São Tomé and Príncipe Islands (Gulf of ...

Half a century of echinoid population decline in the northern Gulf of Aqaba, Red Sea

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Multi‐decadal monitoring in the Gulf of Aqaba, northern Red Sea, reveals severe (>90%) declines of key echinoid grazers. These declines signify a collapse of crucial herbivory functions underpinning coral reef resilience. Results implicate accelerating anthropogenic stress as a principal driver, emphasizing the urgent need for sustained, species ...

Towards an anthropology of acquisition: ‘How did you get that?’ Vers une anthropologie de l'acquisition : « Où as‐tu trouvé ça ? »

Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.
The production‐distribution‐consumption triad has structured how anthropologists understand exchange for roughly a century. This article argues for expanding this triad to include an explicit focus on acquisition – the systems, processes, and practices of acquiring.
