Under ocean acidification, turf algae are favored over corals, shifting the competition outcome and decreasing coral survival. The local pH microenvironment under the turf, resulting from associated biological activity, drives the dissolution of the coral carbonate skeleton.

Rapid Population Decline of the Pillar Coral Dendrogyra cylindrus Along the Florida Reef Tract
Coral reefs worldwide are in a state of decline, but the population status and impacts of stressors for rare species are generally not well documented using broad-scale monitoring protocols.

Expert Treatment Considerations for Lower Face and Neck Rejuvenation
ABSTRACT Background The lower face and neck are essential to overall facial harmony and a balanced appearance. Although most nonsurgical treatments have focused on the upper and midface, a variety of minimally invasive options are now available for treating the lower face and neck that target different aesthetic concerns and provide welcome ...

Testing a site‐prioritisation framework to maximise survival of seeded corals
The framework tested can improve the efficiency of seeded‐coral deployments by increasing average survival through site selection for most taxa, thereby reducing the number of deployed spat needed to achieve a target outcome. Species‐specific weighting of factors was unnecessary for many Acropora species, but may be important for other taxa.

Saving the Last Unicorns: The Genetic Rescue of Florida’s Pillar Corals
As stony coral tissue loss disease (SCTLD) swept through the Florida Reef Tract, one of the most severely impacted species was the iconic pillar coral, Dendrogyra cylindrus.

Abstract Oxygen is critical for nearly all life on Earth, including aquatic species that breathe dissolved oxygen in both freshwater and marine systems. The rapid, global, and anthropogenic loss of dissolved oxygen known as “aquatic deoxygenation” threatens life in these environments, the human communities that depend on them, and Earth system ...

ABSTRACT Understanding the impact of microbial interactions on plants is critical for maintaining healthy native ecosystems and sustainable agricultural practices. Despite the reality that genetically distinct plants host multiple microbes of large effect in the field, it remains unclear the extent to which host genotypes modulate non‐additive ...

Stony coral tissue loss disease (SCTLD) destabilizes the coral microbiome
Abstract Stony coral tissue loss disease (SCTLD) is a rapidly spreading lethal coral disease, the etiology of which remains poorly understood. In this study, using deep metagenomic sequencing, we investigate microbial and viral community dynamics associated with SCTLD progression in the Caribbean stony coral
