Journal ArticleDOI
The Dynamics of Coral-Algal Interactions in Space and Time on the Southern Great Barrier Reef
Kristen T. Brown,Dorothea Bender-Champ,Andreas Kubicek,Rene M. van der Zande,Michelle Achlatis,Ove Hoegh-Guldberg,Sophie Dove +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated how spatial and seasonal changes in environmental conditions (temperature and PAR) influence benthic community structure, and the composition and frequency of coral-algal interactions across eight distinct zones and over a 23-month period at Heron reef on the southern Great Barrier Reef.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sponge bioerosion on changing reefs: ocean warming poses physiological constraints to the success of a photosymbiotic excavating sponge.
Michelle Achlatis,Rene M. van der Zande,Christine H. L. Schönberg,James K. H. Fang,James K. H. Fang,Ove Hoegh-Guldberg,Sophie Dove +6 more
TL;DR: The growth, bioerosion capacity and likelihood of survival of C. orientalis and similar photosymbiotic excavating sponges could be substantially reduced rather than increased on end-of-the-century reefs under “business-as-usual” emission profiles.
Journal ArticleDOI
Paradise lost: End-of-century warming and acidification under business-as-usual emissions have severe consequences for symbiotic corals.
Rene M. van der Zande,Michelle Achlatis,Dorothea Bender-Champ,Andreas Kubicek,Sophie Dove,Ove Hoegh-Guldberg +5 more
TL;DR: The results indicate that ocean warming and acidification under business-as-usual CO2 emission scenarios will likely extirpate thermally-sensitive coral species before the end of the century, while slowing the recovery of more thermologically-tolerant species from increasingly severe mass coral bleaching and mortality.
Journal ArticleDOI
Habitat-specific biogenic production and erosion influences net framework and sediment coral reef carbonate budgets
Kristen T. Brown,Dorothea Bender-Champ,Michelle Achlatis,Rene M. van der Zande,Andreas Kubicek,Storm B. Martin,Carolina Castro-Sanguino,Sophie Dove,Ove Hoegh-Guldberg +8 more
TL;DR: This paper quantified carbonate production, erosion, and dissolution within and between distinct geomorphological habitats of Heron Reef on the southern Great Barrier Reef in order to better under-stand spatial variations in framework and sediment net carbonate budgets.
Journal ArticleDOI
Photosynthesis by symbiotic sponges enhances their ability to erode calcium carbonate
Michelle Achlatis,Christine H. L. Schönberg,Rene M. van der Zande,Todd C. LaJeunesse,Ove Hoegh-Guldberg,Sophie Dove +5 more
TL;DR: The conclusion that photosynthetic products (photosynthates) and/or by-products (oxygen) stimulate sponge bioerosion is supported, which further reveals the importance of symbionts in the ecology of such sponges and in their ability to sustain high bioer explosion activity in otherwise nutrient-poor ecosystems.
