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

Monitoring Corals from Rescue to Care with ArcGIS and Flickr
This article intervenes in disaster media research by investigating the complex system of mediation that is required to mitigate coral disease and to monitor coral rescue and care. Stony coral tissue loss disease, discovered in 2014, has rapidly infected

Aquaculture of corals: the effects of temperature and modifications in photoperiod in performance and growth of Stylophora pistillata [PDF]
Nowadays, corals have a large economic potential and the increasing demand places an enormous pressure on wild reefs. This issue brings new challenges for coral production in terms of increasing production and efficiency. Besides this, climate change and

Wild‐Derived House Mice (Mus musculus) Are Able to Cope With a Constant Light Environment
ABSTRACT Exposure to altered nighttime lighting conditions has become common in today's modern world. Light at night disrupts circadian processes that govern feeding patterns, sleep/wake cycles, and metabolic homoeostasis, increasing the risk of developing pathologies associated with cardiometabolic disease. Yet, the underlying mechanism(s) responsible

Effects of reduced dissolved oxygen concentrations on physiology and fluorescence of hermatypic corals and benthic algae. [PDF]
While shifts from coral to seaweed dominance have become increasingly common on coral reefs and factors triggering these shifts successively identified, the primary mechanisms involved in coral-algae interactions remain unclear. Amongst various potential

Differential Damages Sustained from Hurricane Ike on Varying Growth Forms of Coral at Distinct Locations off the Coast of South Caicos, Turks and Caicos Islands [PDF]
In September 2008, Hurricane Ike hit South Caicos, Turks and Caicos Islands as a Category 4 hurricane. This study examines the differential damages caused to varying common growth forms, size, locations, and depths of coral by Hurricane Ike on South ...

A therapeutic potential for marine skeletal proteins in bone regeneration [PDF]
A vital ingredient for engineering bone tissue, in the culture dish, is the use of recombinant matrix and growth proteins to help accelerate the growth of cultivated tissues into clinically acceptable quantities.
