Gene expression of Pocillopora damicornis coral larvae in response to acidification and ocean warming
Objectives The endosymbiosis with Symbiodiniaceae is key to the ecological success of reef-building corals. However, climate change is threatening to destabilize this symbiosis on a global scale. Most studies looking into the response of corals to heat str ...
London2024Future water temperature of rivers in Switzerland under climate change investigated with physics-based models
Michael Lehning, Wolf Hendrik Huwald, Adrien Michel, Bettina Schaefli, Nander Wever
River ecosystems are highly sensitive to cli-mate change and projected future increase in air tempera-ture is expected to increase the stress for these ecosystems. Rivers are also an important socio-economic factor impact- ing, amongst others, agriculture, ...
2022Positive interactions between corals and damselfish increase coral resistance to temperature stress
By the century's end, many tropical seas will reach temperatures exceeding most coral species' thermal tolerance on an annual basis. The persistence of corals in these regions will, therefore, depend on their abilities to tolerate recurrent thermal stress. ...
WILEY2022Worldwide analysis of reef surveys sorts coral taxa by associations with recent and past heat stress
Stéphane Joost, Oliver Michele Selmoni, Véronique Berteaux-Lecellier
Coral reefs around the world are under threat from anomalous heat waves that are causing the widespread decline of hard corals. Different coral taxa are known to have different sensitivities to heat, although variation in susceptibilities have also been ob ...
FRONTIERS MEDIA SA2022Microbes support enhanced nitrogen requirements of coral holobionts in a high CO 2 environment
Nils Rädecker, Gabriela Hannah Holligan Perna
Ocean acidification is posing a threat to calcifying organisms due to the increased energy requirements of calcification under high CO2 conditions. The ability of scleractinian corals to cope with future ocean conditions will thus depend on their ability t ...
2021Seascape genomics as a new tool to empower coral reef conservation strategies: an example on north‐western Pacific Acropora digitifera
Stéphane Joost, Oliver Michele Selmoni, Estelle Rochat
Coral reefs are suffering a major decline due to the environmental constraints imposed by climate change. Over the last 20 years, three major coral bleaching events occurred in concomitance with anomalous heatwaves, provoking a severe loss of coral cover w ...
2020Science, Diplomacy, and the Red Sea's Unique Coral Reef: It's Time for Action
Rapid ocean warming due to climate change poses a serious risk to the survival of coral reefs. It is estimated that 70-90 percent of all reefs will be severely degraded by mid-century even if the 1.5 degrees C goal of the Paris Climate Agreement is achieve ...
FRONTIERS MEDIA SA2020Climate change now detectable from any single day of weather at global scale
For generations, climate scientists have educated the public that 'weather is not climate', and climate change has been framed as the change in the distribution of weather that slowly emerges from large variability over decades(1-7). However, weather when ...
2020Characterization of bacterial communities in Lake Geneva by comparing genetic and physiological methods
Over the last century, the level of atmospheric CO2 has increased to the highest concentrations on Earth within the past 800'000 years. Current predictions anticipate that the effects of greenhouse gases will lead to a rise in air temperature ranging betwe ...
