The 27–year decline of coral cover on the Great Barrier Reef and its causes [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2012
This study investigates the spatial and temporal dynamics of coral cover, identifies the main drivers of coral mortality, and quantifies the rates of potential recovery of the Great Barrier Reef.The world’s coral reefs are being degraded, and the need to

Global declines in coral reef calcium carbonate production under ocean acidification and warming

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2021
Significance The growth of coral reefs is threatened by the dual stressors of ocean warming and acidification. Despite a wealth of studies assessing the impacts of climate change on individual taxa, projections of their impacts on coral reef net ...

Local conditions magnify coral loss after marine heatwaves

open access: yesScience, 2021
Think globally, act locally Climate change–driven elevations in temperature over the past few decades have caused repeated coral bleaching and subsequent death.

Coral restoration – A systematic review of current methods, successes, failures and future directions

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2020
Coral reef ecosystems have suffered an unprecedented loss of habitat-forming hard corals in recent decades. While marine conservation has historically focused on passive habitat protection, demand for and interest in active restoration has been growing ...

Impact of pneumococcal vaccine response on asthma exacerbation frequency in young children

open access: yesImmunity, Inflammation and Disease, 2020
Introduction Chronic asthma is a heterogeneous disease, and increased eosinophils have been shown to predict increased asthma exacerbations, especially in adults.

Wound healing and regeneration in the reef building coral Acropora millepora

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2023
Branching scleractinian corals are niche-constructing organisms, providing continuously-growing, structural foundation for spectacularly biodiverse coral reef ecosystems.

Region-wide temporal and spatial variation in Caribbean reef architecture: is coral cover the whole story? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
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 microbiome manipulation elicits metabolic and genetic restructuring to mitigate heat stress and evade mortality

open access: yesScience Advances, 2021
Probiotics mitigate post-heat stress disorder, preventing coral mortality. Beneficial microorganisms for corals (BMCs) ameliorate environmental stress, but whether they can prevent mortality and the underlying host response mechanisms remains elusive ...

Enhanced surface temperature over India during 1980–2020 and future projections: causal links of the drivers and trends

open access: yesnpj Climate and Atmospheric Science, 2023
The Earth’s surface temperatures have increased significantly since the beginning of industrialisation. The high emissions of greenhouse gases have contributed to global warming and climate change, which is expected to continue.
