As intuitive as it sounds, the scale of coral feeding is something that coral reef ecologists have been unable to examine over the past 30-40 years due to a lack of sufficient data and technology.

Feeding coral reefs can aid their recovery from bleaching events. Ohio State University. Journal Communications Earth & Environment DOI 10.1038/s43247-024-01672-5. Keywords ...

We tracked coral feeding habits from space to find out which reefs could be more resilient Published: October 18, 2018 11:01am EDT. Michael D. Fox, ...

“We fed the corals with beneficial microorganisms, which is like feeding them probiotic yoghurt full of good bacteria,” says Federal University of Rio de Janeiro Professor Raquel Peixoto.

Watch coral polyps feed in high-speed. Although it might look like a sped-up underwater dance party, those tentacles are swinging around looking for food.

Corals feed by extending tentacles out from their body to catch microscopic food particles. Past research has shown that feeding corals zooplankton — tiny animals that float near the surface of ...

Coral feed themselves mostly with sunshine (which also gives their characteristic vibrant color). But they are not plants, and cannot photosynthesize by themselves.

They used the BUM in the Gulf of Eilat at the northern tip of the Red Sea to observe corals feeding, fighting, sharing, and even ‘kissing’, a previously unobserved behavior.

Swim along the edge of a coral reef and you'll often see schools of sleek, torpedo-shaped fishes gliding through the currents, feeding on tiny plankton from the water column.

We can effectively predict coral feeding from space.” Massive coral bleaching events have swept through large swaths of reefs around the world, most notably the 2016 event on the Great Barrier Reef, ...
