Acclimation and adaptation of scleractinian coral communities along environmental gradients within an Indonesian reef system (2010, background): “The ability to up-regulate feeding rates in turbid environments is thus a key acclimatization strategy (Anthony and Fabricius, 2000) and would be typically accompanied by an increase in respiration (Szmant-Froelich and Pilson, 1984).”
Coral mortality following extreme low tides and high solar radiation (2007, background): “The western, leeward side of the islands is characterized by high turbidity (Anthony and Fabricius 2000), and the eastern side is inXuenced by waves generated by the prevailing southeasterly trade winds (Larcombe et al.”
Effects of terrestrial runoff on the ecology of corals and coral reefs: review and synthesis. (2005, background): “Depending on species, feeding saturation may occur at low to moderately high levels of POM: some species become mixotrophic at high turbidity, while others remain mostly phototrophic and gain a small proportion of their energy demand from particle feeding (Anthony and Fabricius, 2000).”
Beyond corals and fish: the effects of climate change on noncoral benthic invertebrates of tropical reefs (2008, background): “The relationships between turbidity, heterotrophy, and autotrophy are well studied among corals and their photosymbionts (Anthony & Fabricius, 2000; Fabricius, 2005), but with a few exceptions, the effects of turbidity on most other invertebrates that harbor photosymbionts are unknown.”
Tradeoffs to Thermal Acclimation: Energetics and Reproduction of a Reef Coral with Heat Tolerant Symbiodinium Type-D (2011, background): “In zooxanthellate corals without heterotrophic-autotrophic plasticity stored lipids are depleted following bleaching, without being replenished as they are gradually used for cellular repair and metabolism [52].”
Effect of natural zooplankton feeding on the tissue and skeletal growth of the scleractinian coral Stylophora pistillata (2003, background): “1993) and particulate organic matter (Lasker 1981; Anthony 1999; Anthony and Fabricius 2000), bacteria (Di Salvo 1971; Sorokin 1973; Farrant et al.”
Comparative analysis of energy allocation to tissue and skeletal growth in corals (2002, methodology): “Tissue parameters: Estimates of mass-specific energy content (jT) were based on the enthalpy of the major tissue constituents: lipid (39.5 J mg21), protein (23.9 J mg21), and carbohydrates (17.5 J mg21, Gnaiger and Bitterlich 1984; Anthony and Fabricius 2000).”
Energetics approach to predicting mortality risk from environmental stress: a case study of coral bleaching (2009, background): “Journal compilation © 2009 British Ecological Society, Functional Ecology anabolism, m, is under the constraints of an array of factors including limiting nutrients, irradiance and relative dependence on heterotrophy vs. autotrophy ( Anthony & Fabricius 2000 ).”
Microplastic ingestion by scleractinian corals (2015, background): “2008), with common species of scleractinian corals feeding on fine particles that range in size from 10 to 100 μm (Anthony 1999; Anthony and Fabricius 2000; Mills et al. 2004).”
Long-term growth rates of four Mediterranean cold-water coral species maintained in aquaria (2011, background): “These differences may increase the efficiency of prey capture and energy input in the coral tissue as shown in tropical corals (Anthony 2000, Anthony & Fabricius 2000, Ferrier-Pagès et al. 2003, Palardy et al. 2005, 2008); therefore, they have a positive effect on the growth rates.”
Ocean acidification causes bleaching and productivity loss in coral reef builders (2008, background): “Also, being fully autotrophic, any loss of photosynthetic capacity because of bleaching is likely to translate more directly to reduced physiological performance and mortality than in corals that have dual trophic modes (37).”
