Despite incredible thermotolerance to global warming, corals from Gulf of Aqaba are impacted by other local stressors such as copper (Cu) pollution. Multixenobiotic resistance (MXR) is the first line of cells defense against pollutant, however knowledge on ...
Global climate change represents one of the greatest challenges facing society and ecosystems today. It impacts key aspects of everyday life and disrupts ecosystem integrity and function. The exponential growth of climate data combined with Knowledge-Disco ...
Corals at the world's southernmost coral reef of Lord Howe Island (LHI) experience large temperature and light fluctuations and need to deal with periods of cold temperature (< 18 °C), but few studies have investigated how corals are able to cope with thes ...
Global warming is threatening 75 % of the world’s coral reefs. The reproduction of corals is a driver for the development of the whole reef ecosystem. Then, it is essential to better understand the transgenerational mechanisms in the response of parents an ...
Diverse studies have confirmed the adverse impact of global climate change in lakes. In order to establish effective water quality management policies, it is essential to understand how the heat exchange between the atmosphere and the lake evolves under th ...
Little is known about the life-history trade-offs and limitations, and the physiological mechanisms that are associated with phenotypic adaptation to future ocean conditions. To address this knowledge gap, we investigated the within-and trans-generation li ...
As the oceans become less alkaline due to rising CO2 levels, deleterious consequences are expected for calcifying corals. Predicting how coral calcification will be affected by on-going ocean acidification (OA) requires an accurate assessment of CaCO3 depo ...
Tropical reef-building corals live in symbiosis with a wide range of micro-organisms, including unicellular Symbiodinium dinoflagellates also called zooxanthellae. These photosynthetic endosymbionts live inside the coral gastroderm cells. Although corals c ...
Global warming has triggered an increase in both prevalence and severity of coral disease outbreaks, yet little is known about the mechanism(s) by which coral disease functions, or what controls a corals’ susceptibility to infection. Failure to address suc ...
