Exposure to elevated sea-surface temperatures below the bleaching threshold impairs coral recovery and regeneration following injury [PDF]
PeerJ, 2017 Elevated sea surface temperatures (SSTs) are linked to an increase in the frequency and severity of bleaching events due to temperatures exceeding corals’ upper thermal limits. The temperatures at which a breakdown of the coral-Symbiodinium endosymbiosis

SWITCHING ON CORAL BLEACHING [PDF]
Journal of Experimental Biology, 2006 ![Figure][1] Growing up on the Venezuelan coast, Santiago Perez spent much of his childhood camping on the keyes and visiting the coral reefs of Morrocoy Park. But over the years, Perez realised that the reefs were failing.

Cladistics, EarlyView.Abstract Targeted enrichment of ultraconserved elements (UCEs) is a powerful tool for resolving phylogeny in groups with limited morphological or molecular data. Here, we use UCEs to reconstruct the first comprehensive phylogeny of the chiton superfamily Cryptoplacoidea, including museum material up to 133 years old.

Coral-dwelling fish moderate bleaching susceptibility of coral hosts.
PLoS ONE, 2018 Global environmental change has the potential to disrupt well established species interactions, with impacts on nutrient cycling and ecosystem function. On coral reefs, fish living within the branches of coral colonies can promote coral performance, and ...

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

Cladistics, EarlyView.Abstract The marronoid clade is a globally distributed, ecologically diverse group of spiders. It is an important faunal component in both natural and synanthropic environments, and even found in aquatic and extreme habitats such as desert salt flats. The systematics of the marronoid clade has been notoriously unstable due to the widespread character ...

Bleaching susceptibility and recovery of Colombian Caribbean corals in response to water current exposure and seasonal upwelling. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Coral bleaching events are globally occurring more frequently and with higher intensity, mainly caused by increases in seawater temperature. In Tayrona National Natural Park (TNNP) in the Colombian Caribbean, local coral communities are subjected to ...

Advancing conservation breeding programs for marine invertebrates
Conservation Biology, EarlyView.Abstract In the face of ecosystem change and biodiversity loss caused by climate change and other stressors, conservation breeding, or captive breeding, with the aim of reintroduction for wild population recovery, is an emerging tool for preventing species’ extinction and rehabilitating ecosystems.

Severity of 2005 Caribbean Bleaching
, 2012 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.
