Outbreaks of crown-of-thorns starfish are often attributed to step-changes in larval survivorship following anomalous increases in nutrients and food availability.

The Coral Reef at Funafuti [PDF]
THE report on the coral reef at Funafuti that was read to the Royal Society on February 11, will doubtless be of very great interest to all who have studied the very difficult problems concerning the origin of reefs and atolls.

Abstract Seagrasses thrive in shallow lagoons between land and fringing coral reefs, serving as a buffer that mitigates the propagation of environmental stressors from land to reefs. However, mass grazing by megaherbivores poses a significant threat to seagrass loss, impacting the sustainability of tropical coastal habitats. Despite the urgency of this

Formation of Coral Reefs [PDF]
I HAVE read with much interest the description in NATURE of the attempt of Prof. Sollas to bore through the rim of the Funafuti Atoll.

Abstract Zooplankton‐associated microbiomes play an important role for host health, and contribute to ecosystem processes such as nutrient cycling. Yet, few studies have assessed how environmental gradients and biotic interactions, including parasitism and diet, may shape the microbiome composition of wild zooplankton. Here, we analyzed the microbiomes

As global heating and other anthropogenic influences alter tropical marine environments, it is unclear how marine bird populations will be impacted and whether their current roles in tropical marine ecosystems will change. Although marine birds roost and

Coral calcification mechanisms across a natural environmental mosaic in Hawai'i
Abstract Coral calcification is key to coral reef growth and function but may be compromised under increasing global and local stressors. Corals modify the carbonate chemistry of their calcifying fluid to facilitate calcification, but little is known about how these mechanisms vary across the substantial differences in reef seawater conditions that can

WILL you be good enough to allow me to correct a somewhat important oversight in the note in last week's NATURE, on the work of the Coral Reef Committee of the Royal Society. You mention that the Royal Society has granted the sum of, £800, and the Government a gunboat, for the expedition.

Abstract Continued human activity is expected to accelerate ocean deoxygenation, leading to the expansion and shallowing of oxygen‐deficient zones (ODZs). This decline in oxygen may impact both phytoplankton growth and trace metal uptake. We conducted culture experiments with Prochlorococcus MIT9313 and Synechococcus XM‐24, two numerically dominant ...
