Ocean acidification (OA) is expected to modify the structure and function of coral reef ecosystems by reducing calcification, increasing bioerosion, and altering the physiology...

Coral reef ecosystems are experiencing increased rates of dissolution due to losses in live coral cover coupled with the impacts of ocean acidification (OA) on coral reef...

Bioeroding sponges directly interact and compete with corals on tropical reefs. Experimental studies have shown climate change alters this biotic interaction, often in favor of...
