The following is a short alphabetical list of articles and books regarding
coral diseases that may be of interest. Most of them are cited in the other
parts of the Coral Disease Page. However, it is not our intent to
provide an exhaustive list of all the published works on coral disease.
Neither do we intend to include every paper published by any of the individuals
who are mentioned here.
Please note that none of these references are available at this
site. This is simply a list to get the reader pointed in the correct direction.
You may also wish to check out the publication list at the NOAA
Coral Health and Monitoring Program page.
