🌊El calor amenaza incluso a los corales más resistentes del Caribe, según un estudio con participación del #CSIC

☀️Han analizado más de un siglo de evolución de una especie de coral 

💧Se ha superado el "límite térmico" para que crezcan adecuadamente

New paper alert 📚🚨‼️

Reconstructing skeletal growth records from the Brazilian endemic coral Mussismilia braziliensis (1926-2015; the longest record in the SWA) reveals cross-shelf differences in local and climatic growth drivers in Abrolho’s turbid-zone reefs.

High‐resolution coral oxygen and carbon isotope records reveal temperature and autotrophy dynamics in a Mediterranean climate change hotspot The Mediterranean Sea is warming at a rate exceeding the global average. Long-term, high-resolution data are essential for contextualizing changes within broader temporal scales, and coral skeletons ....

New OA paper out! We present the most accurate coral d18O-temperature equation, reconstruct coral trophic dynamics in the Med for the first time, and show #Cladocora skeletons are key archives for reconstructing anthropogenic warming and impacts.

Reconstruction of long‐term sublethal effects of warming on a temperate coral in a climate change hotspot This study uniquely analyzes calcification in the temperate coral Cladocora caespitosa across unprecedented geographical and temporal scales in the Mediterranean Sea. By examining sublethal responses...
