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

Too hot to handle? The impact of the 2023 marine heatwave on Florida Keys coral
The summer 2023 marine heatwave was the most severe on record for Florida’s Coral Reef, with unprecedented water temperatures and cumulative heat stress leading to 100% coral bleaching.

CoralTemp and the Coral Reef Watch Coral Bleaching Heat Stress Product Suite Version 3.1
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Coral Reef Watch (CRW) program has been providing resource managers, scientific researchers, and other coral reef ecosystem stakeholders with coral bleaching heat stress products for more than 20

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.

Anomalously cool clumped isotope temperatures in tropical lagoon carbonates
Carbonate clumped isotopes were used to reconstruct paleoclimate from lagoon sediments in the central tropical Pacific. Results were anomalously cool compared to modern measurements and other paleoclimate records. This study highlights the important of understanding carbonate facies and depositional environments in interpreting clumped isotope results.

Controls on carbonate island formation and evolution: South Joulter Cay, Great Bahama Bank
The evolution of South Joulter Cay occurs in three stages: linear ridges shaped by waves and longshore currents, arcuate ridges influenced by tidal currents and channels, and cuspate ridges formed by variable wind and wave directions. These processes are driven by climatic and oceanographic factors.

Cooling climate across last interglacial high stands on San Salvador and Great Inagua, The Bahamas
Temperature data comparison with last interglacial mollusc clumped isotope data from this study, as well as from Bermuda (Minnebo et al., 2024; Zhang et al., 2021). The ‘later’ and ‘earlier’ ages within MIS 5e refer to Reef II and Reef I, respectively, for Bahamas data.

Sediment‐stressed reefs over the past 420 Myr
In order to fully elucidate the relationship between siliciclastic sedimentation and reef development, there needs to be a significant step change in how we record ancient and recent reefs. Only through the collection of constrained quantitative data, we can progress beyond the largely conjectural associations postulated for many ancient reefal systems.

We present the first documentation of whitings in the Red Sea, observed in a lagoonal environment. These events are linked to cascading offshore dense waters that liberate trapped sea floor nutrients, triggering algal blooms and elevating alkalinity, which is buffered by direct CaCO3 precipitation—contributing to the accumulation of aragonite mud in ...
