Revisiting 20 years of coral–algal interactions: global patterns and knowledge gaps
KY Inagaki, GO Longo - Coral Reefs, 2024 - Springer
Coral–algal interactions are pivotal in reef ecosystems globally as they can scale up
ecosystem levels and lead to dominance shifts. In this study, we conducted a systematic …

Coming of age: Annual onset of coral reproduction is determined by age rather than size
Constraints on organisms possessing a unitary body plan appear almost absent from
colonial organisms. Like unitary organisms, however, coral colonies seemingly delay …

Mortality, growth and regeneration following fragmentation of reef-forming corals under thermal stress
Storms inflict damage to corals resulting in fragments that have the potential to regenerate
thus contributing to the asexual reproduction of the parental colony. Extreme climatic events …
