Intersection of coral molecular responses to a localized mortality event and ex situ deoxygenation. [PDF]
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
