• The Environment Recording Unit in coral skeletons – a synthesis of structural and chemical evidences for a biochemically driven, stepping-growth process in fibres (2005, background): “The micronic stepping growth mode (now proved also in fossil corals: Stolarski, 2003) is common to both microstructures, with quite comparable patterns.”
• Microstructure of common reef-building coral genera Acropora, Pocillopora, Goniastrea and Porites: constraints on spatial resolution in geochemical sampling (2007, methodology): “However, in some cases, centers appear to consist primarily of organic matter with few preserved biocrystals (Stolarski 2003).”
• Debating phylogenetic relationships of the scleractinian Psammocora: molecular and morphological evidences (2007, background): “Microstructurally, the minute granule/spines correspond to centers of calcifi cation (Centers of Rapid Accretion, sensu Stolarski 2003) as seen in transversally sectioned septa (Fig.3D4, E4, F4).”
• Searching for new morphological characters in the systematics of scleractinian reef corals: comparison of septal teeth and granules between Atlantic and Pacific Mussidae (2009, methodology): “We are therefore able to observe and interpret the shape variation in teeth and granules using up-to-date models of septal growth (Stolarski 2003), which focus on the complex interplay between the rapid accretion front (where primary and secondary calcification axes form) and the surrounding thicken”
• Vital effects in coral skeletal composition display strict three‐dimensional control (2006, background): “The construction of new skeleton is a continuous process in which COC are formed and subsequently overgrown by fibrous aragonite [Clode and Marshall, 2003; Cuif and Dauphin, 1998; Cuif and Dauphin, 2005; Stolarski, 2003].”
