Stony corals, the engines and engineers of reef ecosystems, face unprecedented threats
from anthropogenic environmental change. Corals are holobionts that comprise the …

Tropical corals construct the three-dimensional framework for one of the most diverse
ecosystems on the planet, providing habitat to a plethora of species across taxa. However …

Stony coral tissue loss disease (SCTLD) has been causing significant whole colony mortality
on reefs in Florida and the Caribbean. The cause of SCTLD remains unknown, with the …

The deep‐sea is vast, remote, and largely underexplored. However, methodological
advances in environmental DNA (eDNA) surveys could aid in the exploration efforts, such as …

As climate change increases the rate of environmental change and the frequency and
intensity of disturbance events, selective forces intensify. However, given the complicated …

Tropical coral reefs are hotspots of marine productivity, owing to the association of reef-
building corals with endosymbiotic algae and metabolically diverse bacterial communities …

Mapping of O2 with luminescent sensors within intact animals is challenging due to
attenuation of excitation and emission light caused by tissue absorption and scattering as …

Recent studies have revealed that stony corals create their extracellular skeletons via
biologically controlled calcification, in which amorphous calcium carbonate (ACC), regarded …

Reef building corals are efficient biological collectors of solar radiation and consist of a thin
stratified tissue layer spread over a light scattering calcium carbonate skeleton surface that …

For nearly 50 years, analyses of coral physiology have used small coral fragments (nubbins)
to make inferences about larger colonies. However, scaling in corals shows that linear …
