News:Coral Reefs Set a Daily 'Microbe Schedule'A new study in Science Advances reveals that coral reefs actively shape the daily rhythm of microbes in surrounding waters. Researchers found that bacteria and microalgae decrease during the day, while microscopic predators increase by up to 80% at night. The study suggests these daily cycles could serve as sensitive indicators of reef health.
