Natural experiments and long-term monitoring are critical to understand and predict marine host–microbe ecology and evolution
Marine multicellular organisms host a diverse collection of bacteria, archaea, microbial
eukaryotes, and viruses that form their microbiome. Such host-associated microbes can …

Science, diplomacy, and the Red Sea's unique coral reef: It's time for action
Rapid ocean warming due to climate change poses a serious risk to the survival of coral
reefs. It is estimated that 70–90 percent of all reefs will be severely degraded by mid-century …
