.. I was about to post the same thing (the plot thickens, see X :D) .. doi.org/10.1038/s420... similar implications (nutrient cycling at heart of coral-algal symbiosis) as doi.org/10.1371/jour... (primer: doi.org/10.1371/jour...) showing how coral larvae counter heat stress & OA. congratulations!

Coral larvae increase nitrogen assimilation to stabilize algal symbiosis and combat bleaching under increased temperature
Rising sea surface temperatures threaten coral-algal symbiosis, impacting reef ecosystems. This study shows that coral larvae alter nutrient metabolism by increasing nitrogen assimilation to maintain ...
