DOI: 10.1002/2016jc011911
Abstract: The seasonal response of upper ocean processes in the Red Sea to summer-time dust aerosol perturbations is investigated using an uncoupled regional ocean model. We find that the upper limit response is highly sensitive to… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.3293
Abstract: Abstract The productivity of coral reefs in oligotrophic tropical waters is sustained by an efficient uptake and recycling of nutrients. In reef‐building corals, the engineers of these ecosystems, this nutrient recycling is facilitated by a… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.9450
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.

DOI: 10.1002/joc.5103
Abstract: The wind climatology of the Red Sea is described based on a 30-year high-resolution regional reanalysis generated using the Advanced Weather Research Forecasting model. The model was reinitialized on a daily basis with ERA-Interim global… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00227-020-03748-0
Abstract: Since the opening of the Suez Canal in 1869, a plethora of Red Sea fishes have entered the Mediterranean Sea (Lessepsian migration). The Comber Serranus cabrilla is considered to have moved in the opposite direction… read more here.
