Tissue loss disease outbreak significantly alters the Southeast Florida stony coral assemblage
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022 A stony coral tissue loss disease (SCTLD) outbreak, first widely reported in 2014 in the Southeast Florida Ecosystem Conservation Area (Coral ECA), has continued to impact stony coral communities for more than seven years.

Geophysical Monograph Series, Page 503-508., 2021 Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

Susceptibility of Caribbean Brain Coral Recruits to Stony Coral Tissue Loss Disease (SCTLD)
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022 Stony coral tissue loss disease (SCTLD) has devastated coral populations along Florida’s Coral Reef and beyond. Although widespread infection and mortality of adult colonies have been documented, no studies have yet investigated the susceptibility of ...

Rapid Population Decline of the Pillar Coral Dendrogyra cylindrus Along the Florida Reef Tract
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021 Coral reefs worldwide are in a state of decline, but the population status and impacts of stressors for rare species are generally not well documented using broad-scale monitoring protocols.

Repeated coral bleaching events have eroded reef accretion potential in the Florida Keys
Frontiers in Marine ScienceCoral bleaching is now the primary driver of coral-reef degradation globally, threatening the persistence of coral-reef functions and the invaluable ecosystem services they support. The Florida Keys have been impacted by four severe, regional-scale coral-

300 Years of Degradation in Wales Estuaries and Coasts
Natural Resources Forum, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The world's oceans are in a severe state of degradation, yet our understanding of that degradation is often based on changes observed only in the past 20–50 years. This narrow view leads to marine conservation efforts that aim to preserve already degraded ecosystems, shaped by shifted ecological baselines.
