Mass spawning of corals occurs once every year, a few days after FM, during late spring/summer nights.
“Like inside a shaken snow globe, once every year, the barrier reef explodes of eggs and sperms, few days after FM, during late spring/summer nights, a phenomenon even visible from the space [21,22].”

Reef corals are losing this critical reproductive synchrony, likely due to anthropogenic impact.

Anthropogenic impacts (light pollution, temperature changes, architectural barriers) likely cause complex chronobiological changes that are endangering the world's ecosystems as we know them, and possibly human health.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
