Stony coral tissue loss disease (SCTLD) was first documented in 2014 near the Port of Miami, Florida, and has since spread north and south along Florida’s Coral Reef, killing large numbers of more than 20 species of coral and leading to the functional ...

Impacts of Light and Food Availability on Early Development of Cassiopea Medusae
The Cassiopea genus is an emergent focus for behavioral, ecological, and genetic research. Cassiopea ephyrae, a key intermediate in the life cycle of this benthic jellyfish, have been left out of much work on the genus.

Impacts of stratospheric aerosol geoengineering strategy on Caribbean coral reefs [PDF]
Purpose: Currently, negotiation on global carbon emissions reduction is very difficult due to lack of international willingness. In response, geoengineering (climate engineering) strategy is proposed to artificially cool the planet.

Are Zooxanthellae Really Sensitive? Response of Zooxanthellae Size Exposed to Several Pollutants
Pollution is one of the important issues faced by marine resources including zooxanthellae, which is known to be very sensitive to environmental changes. Some pollutants have been reported to have adverse effects on zooxanthellae, however, their sensitivity in regards to changes on cell size of these algae has not been widely explored.

Respiratory electron transport system activity in symbiotic corals and its link to calcification
Scleractinian corals host photosynthetic endosymbionts, making direct measurement of the host respiration rate via incubation methods based on O2 consumption impossible.

A Pilot Study on Zinc Isotopic Compositions in Shallow‐Water Coral Skeletons
The trace metal element zinc (Zn) participates in coral metabolic processes and therefore accumulates in their skeletons. These metabolic processes are largely controlled by the changes of environment in which they live, so Zn isotopic compositions ...
