Scientists have completed the largest survey of soft coral diversity ever conducted. Their results show that soft corals have been radiating in a small corner of what was once a giant sea. 🪸 Story: www.floridamuseum.ufl.edu/science/worl... Study: www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Our article is out in Ecology and Evolution! We use SDMs to model the habitat distribution of the coral Madracis interjecta in the mesophotic/ deep Red Sea. We also found Madracis bioherms to occur in deeper and cooler waters than the individual colonies 🦑🪸 onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...
