Narinratana Kongjandtre is originally from Thailand, she prefer to be called “Nong”. She completed a Bachelors degree in Aquatic Science (2000) and a Masters degree in Biological Science (2004) at Burapha University. Her career begins with coral taxonomy and ecology; she did her first coral reef research in taxonomy and spatial distribution of faviid population in the Gulf of Thailand. She is interested in taxonomy and systematics of the corals (in particular the genus Favia). As she believes good taxonomy is the basis for any ecological study. She got a scholarship from the Royal Thai Government for her PhD, started in July 2006 under supervision of Prof. Ove Hoegh-Guldberg at the University of Queensland. She graduated in July 2011 and return to Thailand working as a lecturer at Burapha University.

Scientists have revealed the torrid, adulterous love lives of the mouth-brooding cardinalfish, with cuckoldry going hand-in-hand with cannibalism of the young.“This is a small and unassuming cor

Most of the world's coral reefs are periodically exposed to heavy seas generated by tropical cyclones which can cause major structural damage to corals that, over time, can play a key role in shaping
Anthropogenic global heating has emerged as a major driver of the trajectory of the world’s coral reefs. Pan-tropical coral bleaching (affecting >94% of coral reefs) has now occurred three times
Corals and sponges are morphologically simple organisms, playing key roles in the ecosystems they build and maintain, providing habitats for other species of animals, plants and microbes: branching st
