Deeper Caribbean reef fish communities show greater taxonomic and functional change in dominance structure over a nine-year period [0.03%]
深层加勒比珊瑚礁鱼类群落在一个九年的时期内显示出更大的分类学和功能变化

Fish communities at greater depths on a reef are thought to be less affected by disturbances that more strongly impact shallower areas. As a result, these deeper communities might be expected to show less change in their diversity and compo...

Potential range expansion of scleractinian corals in high-latitude reefs is critically dependent on the coral host-symbiont relationship that determines coral growth and survival. Although increases in coral cover have been observed at high...
The effects of seawater temperature-induced coral bleaching on the aragonite structure and material properties of massive Porites lutea coral skeletons [0.03%]
海水温度升高引起的珊瑚褪色对蜂巢珊瑚巨礁层孔酸盐结构及力学性能的影响研究

The coral skeletons that contribute to tropical reef structures are biominerals, composed of inorganic aragonite and organic biomolecules. The biomolecules influence the aragonite structure and material properties of the skeleton. We collec...
A spatial numerical model for seagrass-herbivore interactions and the formation of reef halos [0.03%]

Reef halos are circular patterns of bare sand surrounding patch reefs, formed by herbivorous fish grazing near their reef refuges. These formations serve as indicators of ecological processes, providing insights into interactions among herb...

As coral reefs face increasingly frequent and severe disturbances, their condition relies more heavily on recovery dynamics. Understanding reef recovery is essential for assessing the long-term ecological integrity and functioning of these ...

High mortality of juvenile corals hinder both the natural recovery of populations and the successful implementation of restoration efforts. Grazing is a significant cause of juvenile coral mortality, and grazer exclusion devices have been s...
Localized inshore warming, acidification, and elevated particulate organic matter across a coupled mangrove, seagrass, and coral reef ecosystem in La Parguera, Puerto Rico [0.03%]
波多黎各拉帕尔格拉红树林、海草和珊瑚礁复合生态系统内的局域增温、酸化及颗粒有机物增加

Global declines in mangroves, seagrasses, and corals threaten the provisioning of ecosystem services to coastal communities. However, potential feedbacks between these ecosystems are poorly understood owing to a lack of studies exploring fu...

Coral reef declines have been documented since the 1980's from a variety of global and local stressors. Management resource tools are needed to preserve these fragile ecosystems from stressors, both known and unknown. Laboratory studies hav...
Evaluating the role of moonlight-darkness dynamics as proximate spawning cues in an Acropora coral [0.03%]

For sessile broadcast spawning marine invertebrates, such as corals, successful sexual reproduction depends on conspecifics spawning synchronously. The precise monthly, lunar, and diel timing and the extent of synchrony, i.e., proportion of...

Regularly patterned reef ridges develop in the lagoons of at least one-third of Earth's coral reefs. The interactions between corals and their environment, occurring at scales from millimeters to meters, can lead to self-organized spatial p...
