Agents of coral mortality on reef formations of the Colombian Pacific
The National Monitoring System for Coral Reefs of Colombia (SIMAC) monitors the impact of some of the most important agents of coral tissue loss (bleaching and/or disease) in the Colombian Pacific coral formations since 1998.

Coral community dynamics and disturbances : a modelling approach for Caribbean coral reefs [PDF]
The capacity of reefs to recover after disturbance is fundamental to prediction of their stability. This is particularly relevant now, following the global decline of reefs during the last decades.

Rescue of pATOM36‐depleted T. brucei by human MTCH1/2 reveals common features of protein insertases
Human MTCH1 and MTCH2 (with an N‐terminal extension) functionally complement the loss of pATOM36 in T. brucei, indicating that these evolutionarily distant proteins recognize a common set of substrates and share fundamental principles of mitochondrial outer membrane protein insertion. Structural analyses reveal a common hydrophilic cavity, supporting a

Cryptobenthic reef fishes may not be safe from invasive lionfish (Pterois spp. Oken, 1817)
Abstract Lionfish (Pterois spp.) are hypothesized to negatively influence cryptobenthic reef fish assemblages through predation. We evaluated these potential effects on Caribbean reefs in Costa Rica and tropical reefs in Brazil. Brazil provided a reference condition for cryptobenthic assemblages prior to lionfish invasion, while the Costa Rica sites ...

Adaptation to extreme environments: A review of Antarctic fish physiology
Abstract Having evolved in the chronically cold and thermally stable waters of the Southern Ocean (SO) for millions of years, Antarctic fish possess a suite of physiological specializations that enable them to survive at temperatures near the freezing point of seawater. Adaptations include the evolution of antifreeze proteins, modifications of membrane

When biology meets materials science – Interdisciplinary applications of electron microscopy
Abstract Research at the interface between biology and materials science creates challenges for electron microscopists. Everything from the sample preparation to the choice of imaging and analytical techniques and the interpretation of the resulting data refuses to sit comfortably within the domain of one discipline or the other.

Abstract Far‐red light (FRL) cyanobacteria occupy spectrally filtered habitats where visible wavelengths are depleted but far‐red radiation persists. Shark Bay (Western Australia) stromatolitic microbial mats provide such a habitat, containing subsurface cyanobacterial communities in which chlorophyll d/f (Chl d/f)‐containing phototrophs coexist with ...

ABSTRACT Following recent calls to deepen understanding of the Global Pesticide Complex, this article delves into the China‐to‐Australia supply chain of a single herbicide—paraquat. First released in the United Kingdom in the 1960s, acutely toxic paraquat is now primarily produced in China.

Coral reefs face increasing threats from thermal stress and emerging diseases, yet how habitat conditions and community composition interact to shape reef vulnerability remains poorly understood at fine spatial scales.
