Quantifying impacts of stony coral tissue loss disease on corals in Southeast Florida through surveys and 3D photogrammetry.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2021
Since 2014, stony coral tissue loss disease (SCTLD) has contributed to substantial declines of reef-building corals in Florida. The emergence of this disease, which impacts over 20 scleractinian coral species, has generated a need for widespread reef ...

Reconstruction of nitrogen sources on coral reefs: d15N and d13C in gorgonians from Florida Reef Tract [PDF]

open access: yesMarine Ecology Progress Series, 2005
The gorgonians Plexaura spp. occur throughout the Florida Reef Tract, and lay down annual bands of a tough protein, gorgonin, in their skeletons. We analyzed stable isotopes of nitrogen (δ 15 N) and carbon (δ 13 C) from individual annual bands in skeletons of Plexaura homomalla and P.

Shotgun Proteomic Analysis of Thermally Challenged Reef Corals

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2021
Although coral reef ecosystems across the globe are in decline due to climate change and other anthropogenic stressors, certain inshore reefs of the Upper Florida Keys reef tract have persisted, with some even thriving, under marginalized conditions.

Reef Structure of the Florida Reef Tract 2005-2020

open access: yes, 2023
Abstract Shallow-water coral reefs of the Florida Reef Tract comprise the third largest reef in the world, but during the last several decades scleractinian (stony) corals have suffered unprecedented declines from global and local stressors.

Deep water macroalgal communities adjacent to the Florida Keys reef tract [PDF]

open access: yesMarine Ecology Progress Series, 2008
A combination of remotely operated vehicle and SCUBA dives at 40 to 80 m depth seaward of the Florida Keys reef tract revealed extensive areas of the seafloor dominated by communities of large benthic macroalgae. Macroalgal cover exceeded 80% in many areas where the substratum was dominated by coral and shell fragments and calcareous cobbles ...

Spatial Epidemiology of the Stony-Coral-Tissue-Loss Disease in Florida

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2020
The stony-coral-tissue-loss disease (SCTLD) has recently caused widespread loss of coral along the Florida reef tract. Yet little is known about where, when, and why this coral disease outbreak occurred.
