Holocene development of submerged keep‐up patch reefs on Bermuda without acroporids: A model of future reef accretion

The Depositional Record, Volume 11, Issue 5, Page 1517-1541, November 2025.
Bermuda patch reefs development was primarily controlled by massive coral framework construction, and variation in environmental energy, turbidity and bioerosion. These factors shaped the size, diversity and preservation of the framework, leading to a suppressed, steady vertical accretion.

Survival and reinfection rates of SCTLD-affected corals treated in situ with amoxicillin

Frontiers in Marine Science
The unprecedented mortality to Caribbean corals caused by stony coral tissue loss disease (SCTLD) led to the use of an in-water medicine applied directly to disease lesions.

Stratigraphic distributions of genera and species of Neogene to Recent Caribbean reef corals [PDF]

, 2017
To document evolutionary patterns in late Cenozoic Caribbean reef corals, we compiled composite stratigraphic ranges of 49 genera and 175 species using Neogene occurrences in the Cibao Valley sequence of the northern Dominican Republic and faunal lists ...

Flower Garden Banks National Marine Sanctuary: A rapid assessment of coral, fish, and algae using the AGRRA Protocol [PDF]

, 2000
The Flower Garden Banks are topographic features on the edge of the continental shelf in the northwest Gulf of Mexico. These banks are approximately 175 km southeast of Galveston, Texas at 28° north latitude and support the northernmost coral reefs on ...

Bacterial Dynamics in Newly Settled Acropora kenti: Insights From Inoculations With Individual Probiotic Candidates

Environmental Microbiology, Volume 27, Issue 7, July 2025.
Newly settled Acropora kenti corals were inoculated with native, individual probiotic candidates pre‐screened for putatively beneficial traits. Several bacterial strains persisted in the coral microbiome and induced structural changes still measurable five days after the final inoculation, with coral associated microbial aggregates (CAMAs) formed ...

Light and photoacclimatization drive distinct differences between shallow and mesophotic coral communities

Ecosphere, 2022
The ecological distribution of coral species from shallow to mesophotic reefs is dependent on light, which varies drastically among local environments.

Shifting baselines of coral‐reef species composition from the Late Pleistocene to the present in the Florida Keys

The Depositional Record, Volume 11, Issue 3, Page 893-916, June 2025.
We produced the first reconstruction of the coral species composition of MIS5d–a reefs in the Florida Keys and compared it with existing regional records from MIS5e, the Holocene, the recent past (1996) and the present (2022) to evaluate how Florida's reefs changed throughout the late Quaternary.

Evaluating the effectiveness of field-based probiotic treatments for stony coral tissue loss disease in southeast Florida, USA

Frontiers in Marine Science
Stony coral tissue loss disease (SCTLD) has spread throughout Florida’s Coral Reef, causing extensive mortality of over 30 species of reef-building corals, and has rapidly spread to many other countries and territories throughout the Caribbean.

Coral of Opportunity Survivorship and the Use of Coral Nurseries in Coral Reef Restoration [PDF]

, 2006
Coral reef damage is unfortunately becoming a common occurrence off southeast Florida, U.S.A. Reattachment of the dislodged scleractinian corals usually initiates damage site restoration.

First record of glitter particles in coral reefs from a remote archipelago in the Atlantic Ocean

Discover Oceans
Microplastic pollution represents a relevant environmental issue for the conservation of marine environments. Glitter particles are often a single-use material and are considered an important group of microplastics.
