Coral reefs are the most diverse habitat per unit area in the world's oceans, supporting an
estimated 1–3 million species in only 0.2% of its area. These ecosystems have suffered …

Host-associated microbial communities are shaped by extrinsic and intrinsic factors to the
holobiont organism. Environmental factors and microbe-microbe interactions act …

Caribbean reefs have undergone large-scale losses in coral cover in past decades,
sparking a search for species that are resilient under stress. Porites astreoides has been …

The coral holobiont is comprised of a highly diverse microbial community that provides key
services to corals such as protection against pathogens and nutrient cycling. The coral …

Reef‐building corals respond to the temporal integration of both pulse events (ie, heat
waves) and press thermal history (ie, local environment) via physiological changes, with …

Mesophotic coral ecosystems (MCEs, between 30 and 150 m depth) are hypothesized to
contribute to the recovery of degraded shallow reefs through sexually produced larvae …

As the devastating impacts of global climate change and local anthropogenic stressors on
shallow-water coral reefs are expected to rise, mesophotic coral ecosystems have …

The deep reef refuge hypothesis (DRRH) predicts that deep coral reefs may act as refuges
against major disturbances affecting shallow reefs, but to date, a few studies have explicitly …

The widespread decline of shallow-water coral reefs has fueled interest in assessing
whether mesophotic reefs can act as refugia replenishing deteriorated shallower reefs …

Temperature is a key driver of metabolic rates. So far, we know little about potential
physiological adjustments of subtropical corals to seasonal temperature changes (> 8° C) …
