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 ...

From the product to the process: Fine-scale skeletal structures of scleractinian corals and their relevance to biomineralization models, geochemical sampling strategies, and phylogenetic reconstructions

Anders Meibom, Jaroslaw Hubert Stolarski

Interpretation of biomineralization processes based solely on the end product - the skeleton - may seem abreakneck task. This is because the biologically controlled mineralization involves cascades of intermediatephases and the activity of a myriad of orga ...

Morphology, microstructure, crystallography, and chemistry of distinct CaCO3 deposits formed by early recruits of the scleractinian coral Pocillopora damicornis

Anders Meibom, Duncan Thomas Lindsay Alexander, Melany Melissa Gilis, Jaroslaw Hubert Stolarski

Scleractinian corals begin their biomineralization process shortly after larval settlement with the formation of calcium carbonate (CaCO3) structures at the interface between the larval tissues and the substrate. The newly settled larvae exert variable deg ...

Biomineralization in Newly Settled Recruits of the Scleractinian Coral Pocillopora damicornis

Anders Meibom, Melany Melissa Gilis, Jaroslaw Hubert Stolarski, Isabelle Domart-Coulon

Calcium carbonate biomineralization of scleractinian coral recruits is fundamental to the construction of reefs and their survival under stress from global and local environmental change. Establishing a baseline for how normal, healthy coral recruits initi ...

Skeletal growth dynamics linked to trace-element composition in the scleractinian coral Pocillopora damicornis

Anders Meibom, Christophe Kopp, Jaroslaw Hubert Stolarski, Isabelle Domart-Coulon

The micro-and ultra-structural skeletal growth dynamics of the scleractinian coral Pocillopora damicornis (Linnaeus 1758) was studied with pulsed Sr-86-labeling and high spatial resolution NanoSIMS isotopic imaging. Average extension rates for the two basi ...
