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 ...
