… Oxygen declines averaged 0.55 µmol L −1 h −1 with average rates ranging from 0.32 µmol
L −1 h −1 for the turf algae treatment to 2.1µmol L −1 h −1 for the Amansia treatment (Table 1, …

Increasing algal cover on tropical reefs worldwide may be maintained through feedbacks
whereby algae outcompete coral by altering microbial activity. We hypothesized that algae and …

Benthic primary producers in tropical reef ecosystems can alter biogeochemical cycling and
microbial processes in the surrounding seawater. In order to quantify these influences, we …

Metabolites exuded by primary producers comprise a significant fraction of marine dissolved
organic matter, a poorly characterized, heterogenous mixture that dictates microbial …

To thrive in nutrient-poor waters, coral reefs must retain and recycle materials efficiently. This
review centers microbial processes in facilitating the persistence and stability of coral reefs, …

Background Predation pressure and herbivory exert cascading effects on coral reef health
and stability. However, the extent of these cascading effects can vary considerably across …

The widespread loss of stony reef-building coral populations has been compounded by the
low settlement and survival of coral juveniles. To rebuild coral communities, restoration …

Recent developments in molecular networking have expanded our ability to characterize the
metabolome of diverse samples that contain a significant proportion of ion features with no …

The rapidly advancing field of metabolomics encompasses a diverse suite of powerful
analytical and bioinformatic tools that can help to reveal the diversity and activity of chemical …

Larval settlement in wave-dominated, nearshore environments is the most critical life stage
for a vast array of marine invertebrates, yet it is poorly understood and virtually impossible to …
