Coral calcification : insights from inorganic experiments and coral responses to environmental variables
… is examined using a laboratory model and living corals. In the laboratory model, abiogenic aragonite formed at high saturation state (Ω>~20) had a granular appearance and was enriched in trace elements, similar to centers of calcification and dark bands in corals. Abiogenic aragonite formed …

Lipid biomarkers of coral stress : calibration and exploration
Corals are increasingly threatened by warming sea surface temperatures and other anthropogenic changes. The delicate symbiosis between corals and their algal endosymbionts (zooxanthellae) is easily disrupted by thermal stress, leading to bleaching and eventual mortality. The use of lipid ratios as …
