Cyanobacteria Associated with Coral Black Band Disease in Caribbean and Indo-Pacific Reefs [PDF]
ABSTRACT For 30 years it has been assumed that a single species of cyanobacteria, Phormidium corallyticum , is the volumetrically dominant component of all cases of black band disease (BBD) in coral.

Region-wide temporal and spatial variation in Caribbean reef architecture: is coral cover the whole story? [PDF]
The architectural complexity of coral reefs is largely generated by reef-building corals, yet the effects of current regional-scale declines in coral cover on reef complexity are poorly understood.

Coral bleaching and disease should not be underestimated as causes of Caribbean coral reef decline [PDF]
In his recent paper ‘A clear human footprint in the coral reefs of the Caribbean’, [Mora (2008)][1] identifies the drivers of change in Caribbean coral reef communities based on the results of comprehensive analysis.

Borneo coral reefs subject to high sediment loads show evidence of resilience to various environmental stressors [PDF]
For reefs in South East Asia the synergistic effects of rapid land development, insufficient environmental policies and a lack of enforcement has led to poor water quality and compromised coral health from increased sediment and pollution.
