Global climate change and localized anthropogenic stressors are driving rapid declines in
coral reef health. In vitro experiments have been fundamental in providing insight into how …

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 …

The attenuation of light with increasing depth, along with reduced exposure to wave stress,
plays an important role in vertically structuring coral reef communities. Benthic …

Corals have evolved as optimized photon augmentation systems, leading to space-efficient
microalgal growth and outstanding photosynthetic quantum efficiencies. Light attenuation …

As coral reefs struggle to survive under climate change, it is crucial to know whether they
have the capacity to withstand changing conditions, particularly increasing seawater …

Susceptibility to human‐driven environmental changes is mediated by species traits.
Therefore, identifying traits that predict organism performance, ecosystem function and …

Reduced water quality degrades coral reefs, resulting in compromised ecosystem function
and services to coastal communities. Increasing management capacity on reefs requires …

Coral bleaching events are increasing in frequency, demanding examination of the
physiological and molecular responses of scleractinian corals and their algal symbionts …

The potential effects of seasonal acclimatization on coral sensitivity to heat-stress, has
received limited attention despite differing bleaching thresholds for summer and winter. In …

In order to understand the contribution of pigmented coral tissues to the extraordinary optical
properties of the coral-symbiont-skeleton unit, we analyzed the associations between …
