Decoding coral resistance to eutrophication through the association of hyper‑efficient denitrifiers as key microbial allies
Abstract Coral reefs face a perilous future due to global climate change compounded by the increasing prevalence of local stressors. Prominent among these is nutrient pollution, particularly nitrate eutrophication, which disrupts the coral-algal symbiosis and escalates reef degradation. While microbial denitrification is hypothesized to mitigate nitrate stress, the mechanisms underlying coral resilience remain unknown.
Quantifying Lithogenic Inputs to the Southern Ocean Using Long-Lived Thorium Isotopes
Introduction The different isotopes of thorium (Th) provide important information about a variety of processes that occur in the oceans. In seawater, Th has a stable oxidation state of IV, making it highly particle reactive (Santschi et al., 2006). Thorium isotopes also have very well-constrained and limited sources to the marine environment.

Carbon Isotopic Fractionation in Organic Matter Production Consistent With Benthic Community Composition Across a Coral Reef Flat
1. Introduction Field studies of coral reef community metabolism (also called ecosystem metabolism) have greatly improved our collective understanding of coral reef ecosystems since they began over 60 years ago (Sargent and Austin, 1949; Odum, 1953; Odum and Odum, 1955).
Last Century Warming Over the Canadian Atlantic Shelves Linked to Weak Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation
Oceanic circulation in the North Atlantic transports huge amounts of water, heat, salt, carbon, and nutrients around the globe. As such, changes in the strength of oceanic currents can yield profound changes in both North American and European climate, in addition to affecting the African and Indian summer monsoon rainfall. In this study, we used geochemical evidence to highlight a slowdown in the North Atlantic Ocean circulation over the last century.
Nitrogen dynamic in Eurasian coastal Arctic ecosystem: Insight from nitrogen isotope
Primary productivity is limited by the availability of nitrogen (N) in most of the coastal Arctic, as a large portion of N is released by the spring freshet and completely consumed during the following summer. Thus, understanding the fate of riverine nitrogen is critical to identify the link between dissolved nitrogen dynamic and coastal primary productivity to foresee upcoming changes in the Arctic seas, such as increase riverine discharge and permafrost thaw.
