A global analysis of coral bleaching over the past two decades
Nature Communications, 2019 Thermal-stress events associated with climate change cause coral bleaching and mortality that threatens coral reefs globally. Yet coral bleaching patterns vary spatially and temporally.

XXVIII. Corals and Coral Reefs [PDF]
Transactions of the Geological Society of Glasgow, 1900 T he lecturer began by pointing out that the carbonate of lime, of which the hard parts of most corals consist, has been derived in the first instance from the decomposition of such eruptive rocks as basalt and dolerite.

Coral reef ecosystem services in the Anthropocene
Functional Ecology, 2019 Coral reefs underpin a range of ecosystem goods and services that contribute to the well-being of millions of people. However, tropical coral reefs in the Anthropocene are likely to be functionally different from reefs in the past.

Effects of future climate on coral-coral competition
PLOS ONE, 2020 As carbon dioxide (CO2) levels increase, coral reefs and other marine systems will be affected by the joint stressors of ocean acidification (OA) and warming. The effects of these two stressors on coral physiology are relatively well studied, but their impact on biotic interactions between corals are poorly understood.

Wound healing and regeneration in the reef building coral Acropora millepora
Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2023 Branching scleractinian corals are niche-constructing organisms, providing continuously-growing, structural foundation for spectacularly biodiverse coral reef ecosystems.

Coral Reef Ecosystems under Climate Change and Ocean Acidification
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2017 Coral reefs are found in a wide range of environments, where they provide food and habitat to a large range of organisms as well as other ecological goods and services.

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2020 Scleractinian corals are the principal builders of coral reefs. These megadiverse ecosystems are declining due to coral mortality from a variety of stressors, including disease.

Bacterial community dynamics are linked to patterns of coral heat tolerance
Nature Communications, 2017 Ocean warming threatens corals and the coral reef ecosystem. Nevertheless, corals can be adapted to their thermal environment and inherit heat tolerance across generations.
