Highly Variable and Non-complex Diazotroph Communities in Corals From Ambient and High CO2 Environments

Nils Rädecker, Gabriela Hannah Holligan Perna

The ecological success of corals depends on their association with microalgae and a diverse bacterial assemblage. Ocean acidification (OA), among other stressors, threatens to impair host-microbial metabolic interactions that underlie coral holobiont funct ...

High plasticity of nitrogen fixation and denitrification of common coral reef substrates in response to nitrate availability

Nils Rädecker, Hal Hunt Jones II

Nitrogen cycling in coral reefs may be affected by nutrient availability, but knowledge about concentration-dependent thresholds that modulate dinitrogen fixation and denitrification is missing. We determined the effects of different nitrate concentrations ...

Nutrient pollution enhances productivity and framework dissolution in algae- but not in coral-dominated reef communities

Nils Rädecker, Hal Hunt Jones II

Ecosystem services provided by coral reefs may be susceptible to the combined effects of benthic species shifts and anthropogenic nutrient pollution, but related field studies are scarce. We thus investigated in situ how dissolved inorganic nutrient enrich ...

Design and Fabrication of Stretchable Photonic Fibers

Nicola Bartolomei

Optical fibers have reshaped the technological landscape, from optical networks and high-speed data communication to in situ imaging and non-invasive surgery methods. The revolution allowed by these fibers has been made possible by its fabrication method, ...

Fast and pervasive transcriptomic resilience and acclimation of extremely heat-tolerant coral holobionts from the northern Red Sea

Anders Meibom, Maoz Fine, Romain Savary, Guilhem Maurice Louis Banc-Prandi

Corals from the northern Red Sea and Gulf of Aqaba exhibit extreme thermal tolerance. To examine the underlying gene expression dynamics, we exposed Stylophora pistillata from the Gulf of Aqaba to short-term (hours) and long-term (weeks) heat stress with p ...

Heat stress reduces the contribution of diazotrophs to coral holobiont nitrogen cycling

Anders Meibom, Nils Rädecker, Claudia Isabella Pogoreutz, Gabriela Hannah Holligan Perna

Efficient nutrient cycling in the coral-algal symbiosis requires constant but limited nitrogen availability. Coral-associated diazotrophs, i.e., prokaryotes capable of fixing dinitrogen, may thus support productivity in a stable coral-algal symbiosis but c ...

Soft functional fibers for mechanical sensing and actuation

Andreas Leber

The measurement and generation of mechanical deformations is a key functionality in health monitoring, human-machine interaction, and soft robotics. However, current methods typically rely on small and hard transducers, which result in poor performance, cu ...

Ultimate Feature Sizes in Thermally Drawn Fibers: from Fundamental Analysis to Novel Functional Fibers

Inès Richard

The fiber thermal drawing process has emerged as a simple and scalable technique for the fabrication of multifunctional and flexible electronics. The integration of materials with various physical and functional properties in well-defined architectures ope ...

Distributed Temperature Sensing Based on φ-OTDR Using Back-reflection-enhanced Fiber

Luc Thévenaz, Li Zhang, Malak Mohamed Hossameldeen Omar Mohamed Galal, Suneetha Sebastian

Distributed temperature sensing with 10 dB back-reflection-enhanced fiber is performed based on φ-OTDR. While the temperature sensitivity of such fibers is similar to that of standard single-mode fibers, a 3-times higher temperature resolution is observed. ...

A modern scleractinian coral with a two-component calcite–aragonite skeleton

Anders Meibom, Jaroslaw Hubert Stolarski

One of the most conserved traits in the evolution of biomineralizing organisms is the taxon-specific selection of skeletal minerals. All modern scleractinian corals are thought to produce skeletons exclusively of the calcium-carbonate polymorph aragonite. ...
