Effectiveness of topical antibiotics in treating corals affected by Stony Coral Tissue Loss Disease [PDF]
PeerJ, 2020 Since 2014, Stony Coral Tissue Loss Disease (SCTLD) has led to mass mortality of the majority of hard coral species on the Florida Reef Tract. Following the successful treatment of SCTLD lesions on laboratory corals using water dosed with antibiotics ...

Tissue loss disease outbreak significantly alters the Southeast Florida stony coral assemblage
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022 A stony coral tissue loss disease (SCTLD) outbreak, first widely reported in 2014 in the Southeast Florida Ecosystem Conservation Area (Coral ECA), has continued to impact stony coral communities for more than seven years.

Spatial Epidemiology of the Stony-Coral-Tissue-Loss Disease in Florida [PDF]
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2020 The stony-coral-tissue-loss disease (SCTLD) has recently caused widespread loss of coral along the Florida reef tract. Yet little is known about where, when, and why this coral disease outbreak occurred.
