Coral bleaching isn’t just an ocean crisis. Here’s how the global event endangers food security, local jobs—and the land ...

Computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) is a helpful addition to laborious visual inspection for preselection of suspected colonic polyps in virtual colonoscopy. Most of the previous work on automatic polyp ...

Beyond corals, the tool has widespread potential for studying other small-scale marine organisms that photosynthesize, such ...

A new handheld microscope lets scientists monitor coral health in real time, underwater, without harming reefs.

The intricate, hidden processes that sustain coral life are being revealed through a new microscope developed by scientists ...

Of the two, scientists have focused most of their prodigious efforts on stony corals, which secrete a hard skeleton. This rigid structure is dimpled with caldera-shaped holes inhabited by individual ...

An international team of scientists have completed the world’s second and largest survey of soft corals, using more than 4,400 museum specimens collected over the past two decades. Their ...

In the present paper, a polyp segmentation model CoInNet is proposed with a novel feature extraction mechanism that leverages the strengths of convolution and involution operations and learns to ...

A soft coral in the Moore Lab at UC San Diego. Scientists think these soft corals use chemical defenses that include diterpenoids, which are shown to have anti-cancer and anti-inflammatory properties.
