Staghorn coral (Acropora spp) has been identified as the most affected, followed by Porites rus, blue coral (Heliopora sp), and boulder coral (Porites lutea). To aid reef rehabilitation, divers have ...

Antler coral (Acropora) accounted for approximately 15% of the damage, while hump coral (Porites lutea) made up 5%. Other species, such as Platygyra daedalea, Pocillopora, and Leptastrea purpurea, ...

Scientists have developed a novel tool designed to protect and conserve coral reefs by providing them with an abundance of feeding opportunities.

The race to create climate-resilient coral—before it's too late In Australia, researchers are pioneering new methods to fortify coral reefs in a warming world.

“ The bleached corals included mushroom corals (Cycloseris spp.), rock corals (Porites lutea), and staghorn corals (Acropora spp.),” the DMCR report stated.

Burt then used a chisel to extract roughly thumbnail-sized pieces of one species of coral, Porites lutea. Back in a laboratory, she and her colleagues extracted DNA from each sample.

The results also hinted at the existence of a new cryptic species of the common bouldering coral, Porites lutea. Oceanographic Modeling and Coral Dispersal The genetic analyses were then coupled with ...

Intriguingly, the research also hinted at a previously unidentified species of the bouldering coral Porites lutea. Oceanographic models were employed to simulate larval dispersal, revealing the paths ...
