Effectiveness of topical antibiotics in treating corals affected by Stony Coral Tissue Loss Disease [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2020
Since 2014, Stony Coral Tissue Loss Disease (SCTLD) has led to mass mortality of the majority of hard coral species on the Florida Reef Tract. Following the successful treatment of SCTLD lesions on laboratory corals using water dosed with antibiotics ...

Quantification of dimethyl sulfide (DMS) production in the sea anemone Aiptasia sp. to simulate the sea-to-air flux from coral reefs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The production of dimethyl sulfide (DMS) is poorly quantified in tropical reef environments but forms an essential process that couples marine and terrestrial sulfur cycles and affects climate.

Dating a Medieval Tsunami With Uranium‐Series Techniques on Caribbean Corals

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 19, 16 October 2025.
Abstract Uranium‐series dates from coral boulders constrain the timing of a medieval tsunami from the Puerto Rico Trench. Previously reported evidence for this tsunami includes hundreds of coral boulders that came to rest hundreds of meters inland on Anegada, British Virgin Islands.

Thermal and Acidification Gradients Reveal Tolerance Thresholds in Pocillopora acuta Recruits

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 20, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Ocean warming and acidification are among the biggest threats to the persistence of coral reefs. Organismal stress tolerance thresholds are life stage specific, can vary across levels of biological organisation and also depend on natural environmental variability.

Algal symbiont genera but not coral host genotypes correlate to stony coral tissue loss disease susceptibility among Orbicella faveolata colonies in South Florida

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science
Stony coral tissue loss disease (SCTLD) has spread throughout the entirety of Florida’s Coral Reef (FCR) and across the Caribbean, impacting at least 30 coral species.

Microbial Community Shifts Associated With the Ongoing Stony Coral Tissue Loss Disease Outbreak on the Florida Reef Tract

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2019
As many as 22 of the 45 coral species on the Florida Reef Tract are currently affected by stony coral tissue loss disease (SCTLD). The ongoing disease outbreak was first observed in 2014 in Southeast Florida near Miami and as of early 2019 has been ...

Contact‐ and Water‐Mediated Interactions With an Allelopathic Macroalga Drive Distinct Coral Microbiome and Metabolome

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology, Volume 27, Issue 8, August 2025.
By integrating multi‐omics, this study demonstrates that contact and close proximity interactions trigger distinct microbial and chemical changes within the coral holobiont and its near‐surface water. While microbial dysbiosis was spatially constrained to the interaction zone, changes in lipid metabolism and production of defence metabolites occurred ...
