Sponge Guide

My colleagues and I have just published a review that addresses a confluence of recent and interesting controversies about sponge nutrition (YES, sponges can be both interesting and controversial!  Who would have thought it!!).  These issues include bottom-up control of Caribbean sponge communities, the “sponge-loop,” and the importance of dissolved organic material in sponge nutrition.
