Production and Formulation of Alcanivorax borkumensis SK2 Cell Powders for Marine Oil Spill Bioremediation

open access: yesBiotechnology and Applied Biochemistry, EarlyView.
Abstract Oil spills pose severe threats to marine ecosystems and coastal communities. Alcanivorax borkumensis SK2, a marine bacterium with superior hydrocarbon‐degrading capabilities, emerges as a promising agent for bioremediation. This study identified an economical growth substrate for A.

Impact of upwelling events on the sea water carbonate chemistry and dissolved oxygen concentration in the Gulf of Papagayo (Culebra Bay), Costa Rica: Implications for coral reefs

open access: yesRevista de Biología Tropical, 2012
The Gulf of Papagayo, Pacific coast of Costa Rica, is one of the three seasonal upwelling areas of Mesoamerica. In April 2009, a 29-hour experiment was carried out at the pier of the Marina Papagayo, Culebra Bay.

Corals [PDF]

open access: yesPhilosophical Transactions of the Royal Society of London, 1879
The specimens of Corals procured at Rodriguez amount to 102 and belong to 49 species. They were taken by Messrs. Slater and Gulliver evidently at moderate depths ; at least no deep-sea forms, especially no Turbinolüdœ or Oculinidœ are represented amongst them.

The Optical - Infrared Colors of CORALS QSOs: Searching for Dust Reddening Associated With High Redshift Damped Lyman Alpha Systems

open access: yes, 2005
The presence of dust in quasar absorbers, such as damped Lyman alpha (DLA) systems, may cause the background QSO to appear reddened. We investigate the extent of this potential reddening by comparing the optical-to-infrared (IR) colors of QSOs with and ...

Caribbean Corals in Crisis: Record Thermal Stress, Bleaching, and Mortality in 2005 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
BACKGROUND The rising temperature of the world's oceans has become a major threat to coral reefs globally as the severity and frequency of mass coral bleaching and mortality events increase.

Indonesian inquiry: A narrative of biocultural teaching on Sulawesi Utara

open access: yesBritish Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Using phenomenology, narrative inquiry and autoethnographic approaches, this study analyses a program of faculty development conducted alongside the delivery of an international field school. Through this study, we explore the value and benefits of inter‐cultural field programming and how these might serve to complement or to redress ...

Genetic parallels in biomineralization of the calcareous sponge Sycon ciliatum and stony corals

open access: yeseLife
The rapid emergence of mineralized structures in diverse animal groups during the late Ediacaran and early Cambrian periods likely resulted from modifications of pre-adapted biomineralization genes inherited from a common ancestor.

The Effects of Anthropogenic Stressors on Reproduction and Recruitment of Corals and Reef Organisms

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2018
The persistence of populations of marine organisms depends on the success of the dual processes of reproduction and recruitment. The production of offspring alone is inconsequential unless larvae and propagules can recruit, which often entails a period ...

ATP Supply May Contribute to Light-Enhanced Calcification in Corals More Than Abiotic Mechanisms

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2018
Zooxanthellate corals are known to increase calcification rates when exposed to light, a phenomenon called light-enhanced calcification that is believed to be mediated by symbionts' photosynthetic activity.
