Denitrification Aligns with N2 Fixation in Red Sea Corals
Denitrification may potentially alleviate excess nitrogen (N) availability in coral holobionts to
maintain a favourable N to phosphorous ratio in the coral tissue. However, little is known …

Contrasting hydrodynamic regimes of submerged pinnacle and emergent coral reefs
Hydrodynamics on coral reefs vary with depth, reef morphology and seascape position.
Differences in hydrodynamic regimes strongly influence the structure and function of coral …

The effects of light intensity and flow speed on biogeochemical variability within a fringing coral reef in Onna‐son, Okinawa, Japan
Global warming and ocean acidification are driving declines in seawater dissolved oxygen
(DO) concentrations and pH. Predicting how these changes will affect shallow, near‐shore …

A carbon cycling model shows strong control of seasonality and importance of sponges on the functioning of a northern Red Sea coral reef
Coral reefs in the northern Red Sea experience strong seasonality. This affects reef carbon
(C) cycling, but ecosystem-wide quantification of C fluxes in such reefs is limited. This study …

Substrate availability may limit the response of tropical bacterioplankton biomass to warming
The response of heterotrophic bacterioplankton to the addition of macrophytic dissolved
organic matter (DOM) and temperature was investigated in the Red Sea. We added 40 μ mol …

Diazotroph-derived nitrogen assimilation strategies differ by scleractinian coral species
V Meunier, S Bonnet, M Benavides… - Frontiers in Marine …, 2021 - frontiersin.org
Reef-building corals generally thrive in nutrient-poor tropical waters, where among other
elements, nitrogen (N) availability often limits primary productivity. In addition to their close …
