Diverse coral communities persist, but bioerosion escalates in Palau's low-pH waters

ScienceDaily: As the ocean absorbs atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) released by the burning of fossil fuels, its chemistry is changing. The CO2 reacts with water molecules, lowering the ocean's pH in a process known as ocean acidification. This process also removes carbonate ions, an essential ingredient needed by corals and other organisms to build their skeletons and shells. Will some corals be able to adapt to these rapidly changing conditions? If so, what will these coral reefs look like as the oceans become...

Fattened up coral could be better at fighting climate change
2015-05-07 16:00:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Miami Herald: Like a jock beefing up for a big game, some corals could do far better at withstanding the heavy blows of climate change when pumped with supplements, according to a new University of Miami study. The study looked at endangered staghorn coral, a fast-growing branching coral that once provided the scaffolding for much of Floridas reef system. For the first time, the research found that vanishing staghorn might have a shot at withstanding the withering effects of increasingly warmer and more acidic...
