Coral Reefs, 2020 Ocean acidification and ocean warming constitute major threats to many calcifying reef organisms, including scleractinian corals. The combined effects of these two environmental stressors on the earliest life history stages of reef calcifiers remain poorly studied, particularly for Atlantic corals.

The Effects of Varying Thermal Stress and Light intensity on the Growth of Orbicella faveolata
, 2017 Llenos AL, Hills JN, Coddington NC, Coelho VR. 2017. The effects of varying thermal stress and light intensity on the growth of Orbicella faveolata. Abstract: Coral reefs are one of the most diverse ecosystems in the world, yet due to bleaching caused by the synergy between thermal stress and high light intensity, these ecosystems are being threatened.

Coral Reefs, 2019
Thermal stress is a major contributor to loss of coral cover, significantly impacting reefs during the third global bleaching event between 2014 and 2017. The long-term persistence of coral reefs depends on acclimatization and adaptation to changing climate, which are influenced greatly by the interactions between bleaching and reproductive success. We

Characterization of a thermally tolerant Orbicella faveolata reef in Abaco, The Bahamas
Coral Reefs, 2020Increased ocean temperatures from anthropogenic climate change induce coral bleaching, the breakdown of symbioses between corals and photosynthetic dinoflagellates. However, some corals thrive in marginal, warm environments that exceed typical bleaching thresholds. Their survival may be mediated by specific genes within the coral host, association with

We evaluated acute turbidity effects on a threatened coral species (Orbicella faveolata) under three short-term challenge scenarios using a Port of Miami sediment homogenate to simulate turbid conditions during dredging. For these experiments we designed a simple coral challenge test system that kept turbidity stable, without adverse effects to the ...

Journal of Quaternary ScienceAbstract Coral reefs are vulnerable marine ecosystems and reef‐building corals are especially sensitive to the impacts of environmental change. Skeletal growth records of corals (Scleractinia) can be used as archives of ecological and climatological change.

Developmental & Comparative Immunology, 2020
Symbiotic relationships range from parasitic to mutualistic, yet all endosymbionts face similar challenges, including evasion of host immunity. Many symbiotic organisms have evolved similar mechanisms to face these challenges, including manipulation of the host's transforming growth factor-beta (TGFβ) pathway.

Genetic differentiation in the mountainous star coral Orbicella faveolata around Cuba
Coral Reefs, 2018Caribbean coral reefs are biodiversity-rich habitats which provide numerous ecosystem services with both ecological and economical values, but nowadays they are severely degraded. In particular, populations of the major framework-building coral Orbicella faveolata have declined sharply, and therefore, understanding how these threatened coral ...
