Regulation of the Coral-Associated Bacteria and Symbiodiniaceae in Acropora valida Under Ocean Acidification

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2021
Ocean acidification is one of many stressors that coral reef ecosystems are currently contending with. Thus, understanding the response of key symbiotic microbes to ocean acidification is of great significance for understanding the adaptation mechanism ...

Fate of wastewater nitrogen upon injection into a coastal saline groundwater system, Florida Keys, USA

open access: yesThe Depositional Record, EarlyView.
Despite advanced wastewater treatment, dilution by rainwater and mixing, and microbial modification, nitrogen nutrients derived from shallowly injected wastewater are detected in nearshore waters in the Florida Keys. Abstract Injection of treated wastewater into the shallow subsurface on islands and along coastlines is a common practice in areas like ...

The Dynamics of Coral-Algal Interactions in Space and Time on the Southern Great Barrier Reef

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2018
Globally, tropical coral reefs are being degraded by human activities, and as a result, reef-building corals have declined while macroalgae have increased.

High‐Resolution Coral Records of Cadmium in Surface Seawater: Biogeochemical Cycling and a Novel Proxy for Winter Monsoon

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2022
Cadmium (Cd) geochemical cycle plays a significant role in the composition and function of the marine ecosystem. Skeletal cadmium‐to‐calcium (Cd/Ca) ratios in hermatypic corals have been applied to reconstruct the historical changes of oceanic and ...

Late Pleistocene to Holocene sedimentation in the Great Blue Hole (Lighthouse Reef, Belize): Results from a 30 m long core

open access: yesThe Depositional Record, EarlyView.
A 30 m long sedimentary succession at the bottom of the Belize Blue Hole represents terrestrial cenote (12.5–7.2 ka BP), restricted marine swamp (7.2–5.7 ka BP) and fully marine lagoonal phases (5.7–0 ka BP) on Lighthouse Reef carbonate platform. Post‐glacial and Holocene sea‐level rise largely controlled the sedimentological, faunal and floral changes

Carbonate microfacies and transgressive‐regressive sequences of Oxfordian shallow‐water limestones (Korallenoolith, Lower Saxony Basin)

open access: yesThe Depositional Record, EarlyView.
The Bisperode section is one of the most expanded and complete sections with shallow‐marine Oxfordian strata in the LSB. This study provides a reference record for shallow‐marine settings and allows for the correlation of the strata from the LSB with Oxfordian deposits distributed elsewhere in the world.

Modelling Growth of Juvenile Crown-of-Thorns Starfish on the Northern Great Barrier Reef

open access: yesDiversity, 2016
The corallivorous crown-of-thorns starfish (Acanthaster spp.) is a major cause of coral mortality on Indo-Pacific reefs. Despite considerable research into the biology of crown-of-thorns starfish, our understanding of the early post-settlement life stage

Holocene development of submerged keep‐up patch reefs on Bermuda without acroporids: A model of future reef accretion

open access: yesThe Depositional Record, EarlyView.
Bermuda patch reefs development was primarily controlled by massive coral framework construction, and variation in environmental energy, turbidity and bioerosion. These factors shaped the size, diversity and preservation of the framework, leading to a suppressed, steady vertical accretion.

Currents and Coral Reefs [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 1889
MAY I be allowed space to call attention to a remarkable fact relating to the growth of coral reefs, which has apparently (as far as I can ascertain) had no explanation, and which might assist materially in the elucidation of some problems relating to ocean currents about which—although the broad facts are known—a great deal of doubt exists?
