[Coral-List] New review of the combined effects of petroleum oil & tropical environmental factors on coral reef taxa

[Mikaela Nordborg]

Dear coral listers,

We'd like to draw your attention to our recently published review on the combined effects of oil pollution and three environmental co-factors towards coral reef taxa. The review summarises and evaluates the current literature on the combined effects of petroleum oil, and oil compounds, with ultraviolet light, elevated temperature and lowered seawater pH and provides quantifications of the impact of each co-factor on oil toxicity. Additionally, itemised summaries of the experimental methodology and results for each study reviewed are presented in the Supplementary materials, which could also be used as a look-up table for each combination of taxonomic grouping and environmental co-factor.

The review is available open access from Science of the Total Environment at the following URL:
