Corals that survive repeated thermal stress show signs of selection and acclimatization.

PLoS ONE
Climate change is transforming coral reefs by increasing the frequency and intensity of marine heatwaves, often leading to coral bleaching and mortality.

Reconstructing Climate From Coral Skeletal Banding: Statistical Effects of Replicating Cores and Observers

Paleoceanography and Paleoclimatology, Volume 41, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Corals archive past ocean‐climate variability in their annual skeletal density bands, but the reliability of these records is dependent on precise and reproducible measurements. We assessed how variability among observers and cores affects coral growth measurements and their relationship with climate indices.

Induced Dysbiosis Modifies Physiological Responses to Warming in a Temperate Sponge

Environmental Microbiology, Volume 28, Issue 9, September 2026.
We investigated how microbiome disruption affects the physiological response of the calcareous sponge Rowella lancifera to simulated marine heatwave conditions. Antibiotic‐induced microbiome changes amplified physiological responses to increased temperatures, linking microbial stability to host performance.

Environmental DNA Reveals Distinct Regions of Extraordinary Marine Biodiversity to Inform a Newly Established Marine Park—Exmouth Gulf, Western Australia

Diversity and Distributions, Volume 32, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim Exmouth Gulf, Western Australia, is a globally significant refuge for many marine megafauna species. The recent designation of a marine park in Exmouth Gulf underscores its environmental, social and cultural significance but remains a site of competing interests.

Assisted Gene Flow Yields Physiologically Robust Acropora palmata With Novel Allelic and Transcriptomic Profiles

Evolutionary Applications, Volume 19, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Assisted gene flow (AGF) is a conservation approach that facilitates the spread of alleles and may accelerate the recovery of genetically depauperate populations. The threatened Caribbean coral Acropora palmata is approaching regional extinction within the western Atlantic partly due to increasing water temperatures associated with global ...

Origins of Improved Hardness in Bioinspired Aragonite Precipitated Under Simulated Biologic Conditions

Geobiology, Volume 24, Issue 5, September/October 2026.
ABSTRACT Biogenic aragonite is a composite of mineral and biomolecules that exhibits superior material properties compared to its inorganic analog. This superiority underpins the success of the bioaragonite structures which support coral reefs and shell fisheries, yet the mechanisms improving the physical resilience of bioaragonite are not well ...

Severity of 2005 Caribbean Bleaching

, 2014
Shown here is an image that plots the accumulated heat stress that corals in the Caribbean experienced in 2005 and compares it with the conditions in 2010. Reports indicated widespread bleaching.

Testing coir (coconut) fiber as a novel, biodegradable material for coral reef restoration: coir interactions with larval and juvenile corals

Restoration Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 7, September 2026.
Abstract Introduction Coral populations have declined in recent decades, largely due to anthropogenic climate change. In response, coral restoration projects are being implemented, and rubble stabilization is one such approach. Rubble beds form when dead coral fragments accumulate on the seafloor and can be mobilized by water flow.
