Uncertainty and variability of extension rate, density and calcification rate of a hermatypic coral (Orbicella faveolata)

Science of The Total Environment, 2019
Skeleton growth variables of hermatypic corals, such as extension rate, density and calcification rate, are widely used to study coral response to environmental stressors, establish chronological age models and reconstruct the evolution of key climate variables.

Ocean acidification partially mitigates the negative effects of warming on the recruitment of the coral, Orbicella faveolata

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.

Physiological and reproductive repercussions of consecutive summer bleaching events of the threatened Caribbean coral Orbicella faveolata

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

A conserved Toll-like receptor-to-NF-κB signaling pathway in the endangered coral Orbicella faveolata

Developmental & Comparative Immunology, 2018
Herein, we characterize the Toll-like receptor (TLR)-to-NF-κB innate immune pathway of Orbicella faveolata (Of), which is an ecologically important, disease-susceptible, reef-building coral. As compared to human TLRs, the intracellular TIR domain of Of-TLR is most similar to TLR4, and it can interact in vitro with the human TLR4 adapter MYD88 ...

The Effects of Synthetic Shading on Thermal Bleaching of Aquacultured Orbicella faveolata Corals

2019
Coral bleaching occurs when the organisms are faced with a high degree of thermal stress, causing them to expel their zooxanthellae (algal symbionts), resulting in a white appearance and a decrease in their nutritional intake. Due to rising ocean temperatures and climate change, this problem has become more prevalent over the last 40 years (Hughes, T.P

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.
