Spatial and Temporal Patterns of Stony Coral Tissue Loss Disease Outbreaks in The Bahamas

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021
Coral reefs of Grand Bahama and New Providence islands in The Bahamas have been surveyed several times over the past decade, and long-term monitoring indicates declines in coral cover associated with hurricanes, bleaching events, and local threats ...

A characterization of a Southeast Florida stony coral assemblage after a disease event [PDF]

, 2019
Coral reefs have declined globally due to anthropogenic stressors increasing the frequency and severity of bleaching and disease events. In 2014, a stony coral tissue loss disease (SCTLD) outbreak occurred off the coast of southeast Florida and ...

Assisted recovery of tissue loss in massive corals Orbicella faveolata: an alternative conservation tool for restoring damaged colonies

Restoration Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Introduction Coral reefs, vital for marine ecosystems and human well‐being, face drastic decline due to climate change effects. In the Caribbean, global disturbances and regional water pollution exacerbate conditions, eliciting disease outbreaks that, in synergy with coral bleaching and hurricanes, cause significant damage to key reef‐building

Unveiling Multi‐Scale Architectural Features in Single‐Cell Hi‐C Data Using scCAFE

Advanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 23, June 20, 2025.
scCAFE is a deep learning framework designed to identify multi‐scale 3D genome architectural features from single‐cell Hi‐C data without dense imputation. It predicts chromatin loops, TAD‐like domains, and A/B compartments, enabling efficient characterization of organization at the single‐cell level. scCAFE also identifies marker loop anchors, offering

Coral Restoration in the Omics Era: Development of Point‐of‐Care Tools for Monitoring Disease, Reproduction, and Thermal Stress

BioEssays, Volume 47, Issue 6, June 2025.
Shown are different multi‐omics approaches that are used to identify potential biomarkers of coral health and disease. The integration of these data streams, using cutting‐edge molecular diagnostic technologies, including colorimetric dipsticks, lateral flow assays, and colorimetric LAMP (loop‐mediated isothermal amplification), holds the promise to ...

Multi‐year evaluation of rearing techniques for three sexually propagated Caribbean corals in a restoration setting

Restoration Ecology, Volume 33, Issue 4, May 2025.
In response to declining coral populations worldwide, conservation groups are increasingly applying restoration strategies to bolster abundance and diversity, including sexual propagation of corals. Collection and fertilization of coral gametes as well as larval rearing and settlement have been successful.

Identification of putative coral pathogens in endangered Caribbean staghorn coral using machine learning

Environmental Microbiology, Volume 26, Issue 9, September 2024.
Using a combination of extensive field sampling, highly accurate ensemble machine learning and tank‐based transmission experiments, we employ 16S rRNA gene surveys to identify two candidate pathogens likely causing white band disease in critically endangered staghorn and elkhorn corals.
