Anthropogenic and natural disturbances have modified coral reef ecosystems over the last decades, ultimately, exerting negative impacts on the persistence of the carbonated matrix and the physical function. In 2014, the Caribbean region saw the onset of a new deadly coral disease, often known as the stony coral tissue loss disease. In summer of 2018, the outbreak was first reported in the Mexican Caribbean in a diving site named ‘Fish Market’. From July 2018 to March 2019, surveys were made to assess the impacts of this new outbreak in the stony coral community in terms of composition and the effect on the coral community calcification. This disease outbreak had severe consequences for this site. Several colonies of susceptible species were lost, which resulted in significant changes in the coral community composition and reductions in the gross carbonate production in a period of only 8 months.

石珊瑚组织损失病爆发对珊瑚礁规模的影响

在过去的几十年里，人为和自然干扰改变了珊瑚礁生态系统，最终对碳化基质的持久性和物理功能产生了负面影响。2014 年，加勒比地区爆发了一种新的致命珊瑚病，通常被称为石珊瑚组织损失病。2018 年夏天，墨西哥加勒比海一个名为“鱼市”的潜水点首次报告了疫情。从 2018 年 7 月到 2019 年 3 月，进行了调查，以评估这次新爆发对石珊瑚群落的影响，包括组成和对珊瑚群落钙化的影响。这次疾病的爆发对这个地点造成了严重的后果。失去了几个易感物种的殖民地，
