Southeast Florida large Orbicella faveolata are highly fecund without evident disease intervention effects

Frontiers in Marine Science
The recent widespread mortality and tissue loss in Florida from stony coral tissue loss disease (SCTLD) has propelled the need for assisted reproduction to restore reefs, especially for the ESA listed species Orbicella faveolata.

Short-term temporal trends of a coral reef in Samana (Dominican Republic) : the value of a permanent monitoring program to identify drivers of rapid change [PDF]

: Permanent monitoring programs are valuable to identify drivers of ecosystem trends. For example, in 2021, we reported the first record of Stony Coral Tissue Loss Disease (SCTLD) along the northeastern coast of the Dominican Republic, affecting major ...
