2005-present: Coral Biology, Graduate course, Interuniversity Institute for Marine Sciences in Eilat.

Our laboratory is engaged in understanding the processes that shape marine ecosystems under scenarios of environmental change. From observations at sea, to controlled aquarium systems and laboratory experiments, our group works to understand processes that will shape the marine environment in the years to come.

Our lab, based at the Interuniversity Institute in Eilat, conducts both field and laboratory experiments to examine the effects of ocean acidification, thermal stress, and local stressors on coral physiology and ecology.

My research focuses on the response of coral reef organisms to environmental change. The Fine laboratory uses a multi-stressor approach to examine how coral reefs are likely to change in the near...

In 2015, UN member states agreed to 17 global Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) to end poverty, protect the planet and ensure prosperity for all.

Dr. Maoz Fine is a Professor at the Hebrew University at the Alexander Silberman Institute of Life Science, Jerusalem, Israel and Head, Laboratory for Coral Reef Ecology, Interuniversity Institute of Marine Science, Eilat, Israel. Maoz Fine graduated and received his bachelor’s degree in Biology from the Tel Aviv University.

Here we report the first study that examines the changes in coral microbial communities in response to a natural pH gradient (mean pH T 7.3-8.1) caused by volcanic CO 2 vents off Ischia, Gulf of Naples, Italy. Two Mediterranean coral species, Balanophyllia europaea and Cladocora caespitosa, were examined.

Maoz Fine is professor at the faculty of Life Sciences of Bar-Ilan University in Israel. His field of research is coral reef biology and ecology and, more specifically, coral reef ecosystems under environmental change.
