Table coral

Three-way hybridization of table corals in the Acropora hyacinthus group from the southern Great Barrier Reef results in parallel adaptive introgression. Check out our new preprint: doi.org/10.64898/202...

Wonderful work led by @zoe-meziere.bsky.social , @kepra3.bsky.social, Marine Lechene, Renata Ferrari, & Iva Popovic. Corals can differ in their connectivity, a lot! #Coralsky #CoralReefs #MarEvol

Dissertation writing break well spent although Red Sea February water temps are 🥶 #coralsky

Viral metagenomic investigation of two Caribbean echinoderms, Diadema antillarum (Echinoidea) and Holothuria floridana (Holothuria) Background Echinoderms play crucial roles in coral reef ecosystems, where they are significant detritivores and herbivores. The phylum is widely known for its boom and bust cycles, driven by food avai...

The Great Barrier Reef’s latest bout of bleaching is the fifth in eight summers – the corals now have almost no reprieve The Great Barrier Reef is facing its worst summer of sustained heat stress since the mass bleaching event of 1998, but now with less time to recover amid repeated brutal conditions.

From Prof Terry Hughes:

"If you’re surprised that the #GreatBarrierReef is experiencing mass coral #bleaching and mortality for the 5th time in just 8 years - you haven’t been paying attention."

Happy to share our latest research!
Over nearly a decade, we monitored two species of coral in Kāne‘ohe Bay, Hawai‘i to reveal that repetitive exposure to heatwaves leads to divergent coral bleaching and recovery trajectories #coralsky 🪸🐠🧪👩🏻‍🔬 www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/...

Awesome leadership on this work by @lhowekerr.bsky.social !! #coralsky #marinelife

Hey coral people! We have our own thread thing. Or whatever?
