Global warming and recurrent mass bleaching of corals

…, TC Bridge, IR Butler, M Byrne, NE Cantin… - Nature, 2017 - nature.com
During 2015–2016, record temperatures triggered a pan-tropical episode of coral bleaching,
the third global-scale event since mass bleaching was first documented in the 1980s. Here …

Ocean warming slows coral growth in the central Red Sea

NE Cantin, AL Cohen, KB Karnauskas, AM Tarrant… - Science, 2010 - science.org
Sea surface temperature (SST) across much of the tropics has increased by 0.4 to 1C since

Shifting paradigms in restoration of the world's coral reefs

…, RD Gates, LL Blackall, N Cantin… - Global change …, 2017 - Wiley Online Library
Many ecosystems around the world are rapidly deteriorating due to both local and global
pressures, and perhaps none so precipitously as coral reefs. Management of coral reefs …

Rapid adaptive responses to climate change in corals

…, L Bay, ML Berumen, DG Bourne, N Cantin… - Nature Climate …, 2017 - nature.com
Pivotal to projecting the fate of coral reefs is the capacity of reef-building corals to acclimatize
and adapt to climate change. Transgenerational plasticity may enable some marine …

Juvenile corals can acquire more carbon from high-performance algal symbionts

NE Cantin, MJH van Oppen, BL Willis, JC Mieog… - Coral Reefs, 2009 - Springer
Algal endosymbionts of the genus Symbiodinium play a key role in the nutrition of reef building
corals and strongly affect the thermal tolerance and growth rate of the animal host. This …

[HTML][HTML] Real-time PCR reveals a high incidence of Symbiodinium clade D at low levels in four scleractinian corals across the Great Barrier Reef: implications for …

JC Mieog, MJH van Oppen, NE Cantin, WT Stam… - Coral Reefs, 2007 - Springer
Reef corals form associations with an array of genetically and physiologically distinct
endosymbionts from the genus Symbiodinium. Some corals harbor different clades of symbionts …

Colocalization and potential interactions of Endozoicomonas and chlamydiae in microbial aggregates of the coral Pocillopora acuta

…, S Stephenson, GK Philip, M Horn, NE Cantin… - Science …, 2023 - science.org

[HTML][HTML] Surviving Coral Bleaching Events: Porites Growth Anomalies on the Great Barrier Reef

NE Cantin, JM Lough - PloS one, 2014 - journals.plos.org
Mass coral bleaching affected large parts of the Great Barrier Reef (GBR) in 1998 and 2002.
In this study, we assessed if signatures of these major thermal stress events were recorded …

Photoinhibition from chronic herbicide exposure reduces reproductive output of reef-building corals

NE Cantin, AP Negri, BL Willis - Marine Ecology Progress Series, 2007 - int-res.com
The photosystem II (PSII) herbicide diuron is commonly used within catchments that drain
into the Great Barrier Reef lagoon, where it potentially reduces photosynthesis in …
