Spatiotemporal Patterns in Orbicella Faveolata Wound Regeneration as an Indicator of Colony Health [PDF]
Anthropogenic (e.g. damage from anchors, scuba divers, tissue sampling) and natural disturbances (e.g. predation, storm damage) can result in wounding of live tissue on coral colonies.

Unveiling a coral disease dynamics: SCTLD's propagation into the US Virgin Islands reefs
In the Caribbean, coral reefs face unprecedented challenges, with the Stony Coral Tissue Loss Disease (SCTLD) emerging as a predominant threat since 2014. This disease, exacerbated by factors such as extreme bleaching events, hurricane-induced physical damage, and coastal pollution, has led to substantial declines in Caribbean coral populations ...
