Symbiont starvation affects the stability of the coral–Symbiodiniaceae symbiosis

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2022
Coral bleaching, the breakdown of the coral-Symbiodiniaceae association has been identified as a major cause of coral reef decline worldwide. When symbiont functions are compromised, corals receive fewer photosynthetic products from their symbionts and ...

A global analysis of coral bleaching over the past two decades

open access: yesNature 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.

Heat-evolved microalgal symbionts increase coral bleaching tolerance

open access: yesScience Advances, 2020
Coral bleaching tolerance can be enhanced through directed evolution of their microalgal symbionts. Coral reefs worldwide are suffering mass mortalities from marine heat waves.

Defining Coral Bleaching as a Microbial Dysbiosis within the Coral Holobiont. [PDF]

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2020
Coral microbiomes are critical to holobiont health and functioning, but the stability of host–microbial interactions is fragile, easily shifting from eubiosis to dysbiosis.

Forecasting global coral bleaching [PDF]

open access: yesNature Climate Change, 2019
Predicting coral bleaching is critical to better manage and preserve coral reefs from global warming. An impressive coordination of surveys across oceans now offers new metrics to help to predict coral bleaching events on a global scale.

Nitrogen pollution interacts with heat stress to increase coral bleaching across the seascape

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2020
Significance Corals are disappearing worldwide due to both local and global stressors. Yet, our understanding of the interaction among these two types of stressors is limited, hindering efforts to conserve coral reefs.

Turbid reefs moderate coral bleaching under climate‐related temperature stress

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology, 2020
Thermal‐stress events that cause coral bleaching and mortality have recently increased in frequency and severity. Yet few studies have explored conditions that moderate coral bleaching.

Coral Bleaching Detection in the Hawaiian Islands Using Spatio-Temporal Standardized Bottom Reflectance and Planet Dove Satellites

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2020
We present a new method for the detection of coral bleaching using satellite time-series data. While the detection of coral bleaching from satellite imagery is difficult due to the low signal-to-noise ratio of benthic reflectance, we overcame this ...

An enigmatic decoupling between heat stress and coral bleaching on the Great Barrier Reef [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2019
Ocean warming threatens the functioning of coral reef ecosystems by inducing mass coral bleaching and mortality events. The link between temperature and coral bleaching is now well-established based on observations that mass bleaching events usually ...

Nutrient-supplying ocean currents modulate coral bleaching susceptibility. [PDF]

open access: yesSci Adv, 2020
Nutrients become a death knell 5 for corals as the ocean warms. With predictions that mass coral bleaching will occur annually within this century, conservation efforts must focus their limited resources based on an accurate understanding of the drivers ...
