Coral reef socio-ecological systems analysis & restoration [PDF]

open access: yesSustainability, 2018
Restoration strategies for coral reefs are usually focused on the recovery of bio-physical characteristics. They seldom include an evaluation of the recovery of the socio-ecological and ecosystem services features of coral reef systems.

Framed reef modules: a new and cost‐effective tool for coral restoration

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, 2023
Coral reef ecosystems worldwide are facing significant damage due to climate change and human disturbances. Consequently, restoration actions have been implemented to repair degraded reef areas.

Coral restoration patents are disconnected from academic research and restoration practitioners

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2023
Global warming and other anthropogenic impacts have driven coral reef degradation on a global scale to unprecedented levels of decline, with further dramatic deterioration predicted by the end of this century.

The N-terminal intrinsically disordered domain of mgm101p is localized to the mitochondrial nucleoid. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The mitochondrial genome maintenance gene, MGM101, is essential for yeasts that depend on mitochondrial DNA replication. Previously, in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, it has been found that the carboxy-terminal two-thirds of Mgm101p has a functional core ...

Cuban Land Use and Conservation, from Rainforests to Coral Reefs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Cuba is an ecological rarity in Latin America and the Caribbean. Its complex political and economic history shows limited disturbances, extinctions, pollution, and resource depletion by legal or de facto measures.

Coral Reef Restorations Can Be Optimized to Reduce Coastal Flooding Hazards

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2021
Coral reefs are effective natural coastal flood barriers that protect adjacent communities. Coral degradation compromises the coastal protection value of reefs while also reducing their other ecosystem services, making them a target for restoration. Here

The potential for coral reef restoration to mitigate coastal flooding as sea levels rise

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
The ability of reefs to protect coastlines from storm-driven flooding hinges on their capacity to keep pace with sea-level rise. Here, we show how and whether coral restoration could achieve the often-cited goal of reversing the impacts of coral-reef ...

Establishing microbial baselines to identify indicators of coral reef health [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Microorganisms make a significant contribution to reef ecosystem health and resilience via their critical role in mediating nutrient transformations, their interactions with macro-organisms and their provision of chemical cues that underpin the ...

Citizen science benefits coral reefs and community members alike

open access: yesFrontiers in Environmental Science, 2023
The field of coral gardening and active restoration has expanded rapidly over the past 2 decades in response to the rapid, global decline of coral reefs.
