Abstract: Abstract Ocean warming is leading to more frequent coral bleaching events. However, cold stress can also induce bleaching in corals. Here, we report observations of a boreal winter bleaching event in January 2020 in the… read more here.

Abstract: Abstract The Red Sea is an important example of a rifted continental shield proceeding to seafloor spreading. However, whether the crust in the central Red Sea is continental or oceanic has been controversial. Contributing to… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/jmse11040808
Abstract: The Central Red Sea Rift is a natural laboratory to study the transition from rifting to spreading. Based on new reflection seismic profiles and gravity modeling, we examined the crustal structure, tectonic evolution, breakup mechanism,… read more here.

Abstract: Abstract. The central Red Sea (CRS) has been shown to be characterized by significant eddy activity throughout the year. Weakened stratification in winter may lead to enhanced vertical exchange contributing to physical and biogeochemical processes.… read more here.
