An Overview of Aplysinopsins: Synthesis and Biological Activities
Marine products are among the most promising sources of biologically active molecules. Aplysinopsins, tryptophan-derived marine natural products, were isolated from different natural marine sources including sponges, stony corals (hard corals) especially

A Problem Solving Environment for Modelling Stony Coral Morphogenesis [PDF]
Apart from experimental and theoretical approaches, computer simulation is an important tool in testing hypotheses about stony coral growth. However, the construction and use of such simulation tools needs extensive computational skills and knowledge that is not available to most research biologists. Problem solving environments (PSEs) aim to provide a

Marine Anoxia and Ocean Acidification During the End‐Permian Extinction
Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

Potential stock of stony corals in Indonesia
Abstract Indonesia is part of the coral triangle region which is known as the world’s highest marine biodiversity, including stony corals. This situation used to benefit local people by trading ornamental corals. The aims of this study are to investigate the potential stock of ornamental corals as well as the reef conditions.

Digital image processing to detect subtle motion in stony coral [PDF]
AbstractCoral reef ecosystems support significant biological activities and harbor huge diversity, but they are facing a severe crisis driven by anthropogenic activities and climate change. An important behavioral trait of the coral holobiont is coral motion, which may play an essential role in feeding, competition, reproduction, and thus survival and ...
