Hello again! Lovely to see old faces. Looking forward to sharing science in a reasonable place. I thought a picture of ~800 years of #Acropora cervicornis reef growth, with two Siderastrea siderea colonies, would be a nice way to kick things off. #Holocene Enriquillo Basin DR. Photo Sean Mattson

Excited to announce the publication of our latest work on the Diadema scuticociliatosis pathogen. Here we examined its presence in environmental reservoirs, finding that it is primarily associated with the coral Siderastrea spp. www.int-res.com/abstracts/me...

We found that algal symbiont communities in Siderastrea siderea collected from two different sites remained unchanged under a variety of global change stressors, even after months of experiencing these conditions! All corals hosted C, D or a mix of both.

📢 NEW GENOME ALERT

@ibaums.bsky.social and Nicolas Locatelli generated the first genome assemblies of three Caribbean reef-building corals, Colpophyllia natans, Dendrogyra cylindrus, and Siderastrea siderea, to better understand coral evolution. 🪸

And it may have an effect that is larger than that of local thermal environment (we collected from several different reef ecosystems in Panama).

Notably, all work here done on Siderastrea siderea, a large, long-lived, Caribbean coral.

Bajo el mar, el coral Siderastrea siderea puede parecer una roca con una superficie relativamente lisa que se extiende hasta 2 metros. Aunque pueden vivir y crecer rápidamente durante muchos años, el cambio climático ha invertido esa realidad. 📷Ewout Knoester #coral

El calor amenaza incluso a los corales más resistentes del Caribe
Incluso los corales más resistentes del mar Caribe tienen su supervivencia amenazada por el aumento de la temperatura. Es la principal conclusión de un estudio donde participa personal investigador del Instituto de Acuicultura Torre de la Sal (IATS), centro del Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas (CSIC) en Castellón. Tras analizar más de un siglo de evolución de una especie de coral resistente a las altas temperaturas, Siderastrea siderea, en varias zonas de la isla de Martinica, el equipo de investigación observó que estos corales no se han recuperado de las olas de calor recurrentes desde los años 80.

We collected our first coral samples! 

We went out with Dixie Divers (@dxdivers) to collect our first lab coral samples! We collected 3 different species, porites astreoides, siderastrea siderea and monstera cavernosa. 

We have lots of exciting experiments pending so stay posted!
