Species‐Specific Vulnerability of Northern Red Sea Mesophotic Corals to Accelerated Warming

Global Change Biology Communications, Volume 1, Issue 2, June 2026.
Mesophotic reefs are often considered climate refuges, yet experimental thermal‐stress reveals species‐dependent vulnerability. Skeletal optics, energy reserves, and light environment determine bleaching severity. A depth‐generalist coral resisted stress while the mesophotic specialist bleached severely.

Iodine-to-calcium ratios in deep-sea scleractinian and bamboo corals

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023
The distribution of dissolved iodine in seawater is sensitive to multiple biogeochemical cycles, including those of nitrogen and oxygen. The iodine-to-calcium ratio (I/Ca) of marine carbonates, such as bulk carbonate or foraminifera, has emerged as a ...

Deep-sea coral distribution on seamounts, oceanic islands, and continental slopes in the Northeast Atlantic [PDF]

, 2007
A database of deep-water (\u3e 200 m) antipatharians, scleractinians, and gorgonians has been assembled for the NE Atlantic to determine what their distribution and diversity was before coral habitats became heavily impacted by bottom fishing gear ...

Baseline coral disease surveys within three marine parks in Sabah, Borneo [PDF]

, 2015
Two of the most significant threats to coral reefs worldwide are bleaching and disease. However, there has been a scarcity of research on coral disease in South-East Asia, despite the high biodiversity and the strong dependence of local communities on ...

Multiple Twinning in Nacre and Aragonite

Advanced Functional Materials, Volume 36, Issue 20, 9 March 2026.
Electron backscatter diffraction map of a cluster of geologic aragonite, exhibiting single, double, and triple twins. The whole cluster is approximately 2 cm wide. Colors indicate crystal orientations, so that pixels where the a‐, b‐, and c‐axis is perpendicular to the image plane are green, red, and blue, respectively.

Building like a Coral—Parallelized, Multiscale Biofabrication

Advanced Materials, Volume 38, Issue 17, 20 March 2026.
Corals build stiff, strong, and inherently circular skeletal materials under resource‐ and energy‐limited conditions—offering blueprints for transformative materials. We synthesize the current understanding of coral biomineralization and reframe coral growth as a multiscale, parallelized biofabrication process.

Rare coral under the genomic microscope: timing and relationships among Hawaiian Montipora [PDF]

, 2019
Background Evolutionary patterns of scleractinian (stony) corals are difficult to infer given the existence of few diagnostic characters and pervasive phenotypic plasticity.

Potential Invasive Indo‐Pacific Acropora in a Coral Reef of Venezuela: A Contribution to Their Morphological and Molecular Knowledge

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.
We report the first record of a non‐native hermatypic coral in Venezuela, exhibiting biological traits characteristic of invasive species. The coral is a member of the genus Acropora (Scleractinia: Acroporidae), native to the Indo‐Pacific. This non‐native petrous coral occurred in a reef of the Morrocoy National Park, in the southern Caribbean.

Peroxynitrite Generation and Increased Heterotrophic Capacity Are Linked to the Disruption of the Coral–Dinoflagellate Symbiosis in a Scleractinian and Hydrocoral Species

Microorganisms, 2019
Ocean warming is one of the greatest global threats to coral reef ecosystems; it leads to the disruption of the coral–dinoflagellate symbiosis (bleaching) and to nutrient starvation, because corals mostly rely on autotrophy (i.e., the supply of ...
