Ecology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 7, July 2024.Diseases and disease outbreaks are increasing on coral reefs. This study systematically reviews histological methods used to study white diseases in hard coral species from 1984 to 2022 and finds inconsistencies in reporting methodologies and terminology among studies.

Intersection of coral molecular responses to a localized mortality event and ex situ deoxygenation
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 4, April 2024.In July 2016, East Bank of Flower Garden Banks (FGB) National Marine Sanctuary experienced a localized mortality event (LME) of multiple invertebrate species that ultimately led to reductions in coral cover, the source of which was unknown but suspected to be related to deoxygenation. Gene expression of reef‐building corals directly following the event

Frontiers in Marine ScienceStony Coral Tissue Loss Disease (SCTLD) has devastated Caribbean coral reefs since 2014, but its potential for global impact remains uncertain. We developed predictive models to assess the worldwide vulnerability of coral reefs to SCTLD under different ...

Environmental Microbiology, Volume 26, Issue 4, April 2024.US Virgin Island reefs were recently impacted by major disturbances, but the ecosystem‐wide impacts are not well characterized. Therefore, we measured reef seawater nutrients and microorganisms. Over time, as the underlying reef habitat became enriched in algae, the overlying seawater ecosystem became enriched in ammonium and certain heterotrophic ...

Restoration Ecology, Volume 32, Issue 3, March 2024.Reef restoration efforts aim to enhance resilience by safeguarding the genetic diversity of coral populations. This could be facilitated by genotyping methods that are relatively inexpensive, and field‐based. A potential method for assessing coral genotypic diversity arises from self‐recognition phenomena.

Intervención de la enfermedad de pérdida de tejido de corales pétreos en Utila, Honduras usando tratamientos con Base2B y amoxicilina [PDF]
Introduction. Coral diseases are on the rise due to anthropogenic stressors, and treatment is challenging due to the complexity of replicating natural reef environments.

Broadscale coral disease interventions elicit efficiencies in endemic disease response [PDF]
The presence and abundance of reef-building corals are crucial to the long-term existence of Caribbean coral reef ecosystems, providing both direct and indirect, local and global, ecological, economic, and social benefits.

Spatial Epidemiology of the Stony-Coral-Tissue-Loss Disease in Florida
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2020 The stony-coral-tissue-loss disease (SCTLD) has recently caused widespread loss of coral along the Florida reef tract. Yet little is known about where, when, and why this coral disease outbreak occurred.

Frontiers 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 ...

Benthic community dynamics and stony coral demographics in Florida in relation to acute disturbances and chronic pressures [PDF]
, 2022 The persistence of coral reef communities is threatened by a suite of pressures operating at varying spatial and temporal scales. In general, acute disturbances (short term stochastic events such as marine heatwaves or hurricanes) and chronic pressures ...
