Source location and food availability determine the growth response of Orbicella faveolata to climate change stressors [PDF]
Regional Studies in Marine Science, 2017 Abstract The local environment shapes coral physiology through acclimatization and also selects for genotypes best suited to a particular site. Both acclimatization and selection likely affect the response of corals to future climate change. The local environment is therefore an important factor to consider for restoration ecology.

South Atlantic Multi‐Site Calibration of Coral Oxygen Isotope Paleothermometer
Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 25, Issue 8, August 2024.Abstract Coral‐based stable oxygen isotopes (δ18O) have been used as a proxy for sea surface temperature (SST) since the 1970s, and δ18O–SST calibration studies have been fundamental to assure robust and faithful SST reconstructions. Paleoclimatic studies based on corals from the tropical western South Atlantic (TWSA) are scarce, and the available ...

Triggers, cascades, and endpoints: connecting the dots of coral bleaching mechanisms
Biological Reviews, Volume 99, Issue 3, Page 715-752, June 2024.ABSTRACT The intracellular coral–dinoflagellate symbiosis is the engine that underpins the success of coral reefs, one of the most diverse ecosystems on the planet. However, the breakdown of the symbiosis and the loss of the microalgal symbiont (i.e.

20th Century Warming in the Western Florida Keys Was Dominated by Increasing Winter Temperatures
Paleoceanography and Paleoclimatology, Volume 39, Issue 2, February 2024.Abstract Long‐lived Atlantic coral species like Orbicella faveolata are important archives of oceanographic change in shallow, marine environments like the Florida Keys. Not only can coral‐based records extend for multiple centuries beyond the limits of the instrumental record, but they can also provide a more accurate representation of in situ ...

Growth of Orbicella faveolata in La Parguera, Puerto Rico
, 2017 Reef-building corals are subject to high amounts of stress, including pollution and rising sea surface temperatures due to climate change. These factors can affect the ability of corals to produce their calcium carbonate skeletons.

Examining fecundity in the scleractinian coral species Montastraea cavernosa and Orbicella faveolata
, 2022 Fecundity and histology are important concepts to coral biology and restoration because it provides additional understanding of the troubles corals are facing and the reproductive impacts.

The genetic response to wounding in Orbicella Faveolata
Coral reefs are diverse ecosystems facing many stressors, including ocean acidification, temperature stress, and disease (Hoegh-Guldberg et al., 2007).
