• Acclimation and adaptation of scleractinian coral communities along environmental gradients within an Indonesian reef system (2010, background): “Coral diversity and abundance decreased from optimal to marginal environments in response to changes in light availability, temperature (absolute levels and daily range) and turbidity (Bak andMeesters, 2000; Vermeij and Bak, 2002; Schleyer and Celliers, 2003).”
• Community ecology of mesophotic coral reef ecosystems (2010, background): “…1.00 Phillips et al. (1990) and Jarrett et al.

• Connectivity and stability of mesophotic coral reefs (2011, background): “light environment along the deep fore reef may result in unanticipated patterns of distribution for some cryptic species of zooxanthellate corals (Vermeij and Bak, 2002).”
• Assessing the ‘deep reef refugia’ hypothesis: focus on Caribbean reefs (2010, background): “The bathymetric effect of bleaching susceptibility can be explained through the relatively homogenous and temporally stable irradiances beyond 30–40-m depth (Vermeij and Bak 2002).”
• In situ photobiology of corals over large depth ranges: A multivariate analysis on the roles of environment, host, and algal symbiont (2008, methodology): “The measurements, taken under conditions of minor cloud cover and no wind, were standardized to the irradiance value measured in the open water column at the same occasion and homologous depth to correct for meteorological bias (Vermeij and Bak 2002).”
