Current Biology, 2008 Coral reefs are the most diverse of marine ecosystems, with hundreds of thousands if not millions of species associated with reefs. For this reason they are often called the rain forests of the sea, and as such they have been of interest not only to marine scientists but also to ecologists and evolutionary biologists broadly.

Fungiidae Classification, Life History, and Biogeographic Research Progress
Redai dili, 2022 Most species of Fungiidae are formed by a single giant polyp that secretes calcium carbonate, which is one of the main builders of the coral reef ecosystem frameworks.

Borneo coral reefs subject to high sediment loads show evidence of resilience to various environmental stressors [PDF]
, 2019 For reefs in South East Asia the synergistic effects of rapid land development, insufficient environmental policies and a lack of enforcement has led to poor water quality and compromised coral health from increased sediment and pollution.

Impacts of stratospheric aerosol geoengineering strategy on Caribbean coral reefs [PDF]
, 2017 Purpose: Currently, negotiation on global carbon emissions reduction is very difficult due to lack of international willingness. In response, geoengineering (climate engineering) strategy is proposed to artificially cool the planet.

Region-wide temporal and spatial variation in Caribbean reef architecture: is coral cover the whole story? [PDF]
, 2010 The architectural complexity of coral reefs is largely generated by reef-building corals, yet the effects of current regional-scale declines in coral cover on reef complexity are poorly understood.

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

Climate-driven coral reorganisation influences aggressive behaviour in juvenile coral-reef fishes [PDF]
, 2016 Globally, habitat degradation is altering the abundance and diversity of species in a variety of ecosystems. This study aimed to determine how habitat degradation, in terms of changing coral composition under climate change, affected abundance, species ...
