A changing climate is driving increasingly common and prolonged marine heatwaves (MHWs)
and these extreme events have now been widely documented to severely impact marine …

In marine ecosystems microbial communities are critical to ocean function, global primary
productivity, and biogeochemical cycles. Both prokaryotic and eukaryotic microbes are …

Coral bleaching has impacted reefs worldwide and the predictions of near‐annual bleaching
from over two decades ago have now been realized. While technology currently provides …

Severe marine heatwaves have recently become a common feature of global ocean conditions
due to a rapidly changing climate [1, 2]. These increasingly severe thermal conditions are …

Polyp bailout is an established but understudied coral stress response that involves the
detachment of individual polyps from the colonial form as a means of escaping unfavourable …

There is a growing interest in the endolithic microbial biofilms inhabiting skeletons of living
corals because of their contribution to coral reef bioerosion and the reputed benefits they …

An investigation of the polarization and temperature dependence of surface second-harmonic
generation (SHG) at the air-water interface shows that the intensity of the SHG signal …

Calcifying organisms and their exoskeletons support some of the most diverse and economically
important ecosystems in our oceans. Under a changing climate, we are beginning to …

The effects of thermal anomalies on tropical coral endosymbiosis can be mediated by a range
of environmental factors, which in turn ultimately influence coral health and survival. One …

Climate change is increasing the frequency of marine heatwaves around the world, causing
widespread degradation of coral reefs. Endolithic microalgae inhabiting the coral skeleton …
