Is ocean acidification really a threat to marine calcifiers? A systematic review and meta‐analysis of 980+ studies spanning two decades
Ocean acidification is considered detrimental to marine calcifiers, but mounting contradictory
evidence suggests a need to revisit this concept. This systematic review and meta‐analysis …

Considerations for maximizing the adaptive potential of restored coral populations in the western Atlantic
Active coral restoration typically involves two interventions: crossing gametes to facilitate
sexual larval propagation; and fragmenting, growing, and outplanting adult colonies to …

How corals made rocks through the ages
Hard, or stony, corals make rocks that can, on geological time scales, lead to the formation of
massive reefs in shallow tropical and subtropical seas. In both historical and contemporary …

Ocean acidification as a multiple driver: how interactions between changing seawater carbonate parameters affect marine life
'Multiple drivers'(also termed 'multiple stressors') is the term used to describe the cumulative
effects of multiple environmental factors on organisms or ecosystems. Here, we consider …

Resistance to ocean acidification in coral reef taxa is not gained by acclimatization
Ocean acidification (OA) is a major threat to coral reefs, which are built by calcareous
species. However, long-term assessments of the impacts of OA are scarce, limiting the …
