Editorial: Last Post

This is the last post (for the foreseeable future) for the "Science Corner" Coral Reef Review. This blog will remain up as an archive to articles reviewed already. I chose to conclude these reviews because I think they've served their purpose: getting a couple semesters worth of reviews of [mostly] coral reef literature in a manner accessible to educated laypersons but technical enough for graduate students. I hope that everyone who's stumbled across this blog has enjoyed their time here. Thank you for reading.

For those looking to further their coral reef biogeography expertise, I recommend the following papers in addition to the ones reviewed over the last few months.
