- Scientists’ warning to humanity: microorganisms and climate change (2019, unknown): “Ocean warming, acidification, eutrophication and overuse (for example, fishing, tourism) together cause the decline of coral reefs and may cause ecosystems shifts towards macroalgae 89–93 and benthic cyanobacterial mats 94,95 .”
- Mangrove lagoons of the Great Barrier Reef support coral populations persisting under extreme environmental conditions (2019, background): “Studies from natural extreme reef environments, such as carbon dioxide vents (e.g. Fabricius et al. 2011, Enochs et al. 2015), back reef tide pools on Ofu Island (Smith et al. 2007, Oliver & Palumbi 2009, 2011a) and mangrove lagoons (Camp et al. 2016a, 2017) have revealed that phenotypic…”
