Ecology and nutrition of invasive Caulerpa brachypus f. parvifolia blooms on coral reefs off southeast Florida, U.S.A. (2010, background): “Caulerpa brachypus f. parvifolia (Harvey) Cribb was discovered invading these reef communities in May 2001 (Lapointe et al., 2005b).”
Harmful algae on tropical coral reefs: Bottom-up eutrophication and top-down herbivory (2006, background): “…solely to over-fishing and diseases of herbivore stocks (e.g., see Hughes, 1994 on trends in Jamaican reefs over the past 20 years, Hughes et al., 1999); however, such shifts more-often-than-not occur in concert with cultural eutrophication (Goreau et al., 1997; Lapointe et al., 1997, 2005a,b).”
