A consequence of climate change is the increased frequency and severity of extreme heat
waves. This is occurring now as most of the warmest summers and most intense heat waves …

Understanding how natural populations will respond to rapid anthropogenic climate change
is one of the greatest challenges for ecologists and evolutionary biologists. Much research …

Finding coral reefs resilient to climate warming is challenging given the large spatial scale of
reef ecosystems. Methods are needed to predict the location of corals with heritable …

Urgent action is needed to prevent the demise of coral reefs as the climate crisis leads to an
increasingly warmer and more acidic ocean. Propagating climate change–resistant corals to …

Coral bleaching events are increasing in frequency and severity, resulting in widespread
losses in coral cover. However, branching corals native to highly variable (HV) thermal …

Naturally heat-resistant coral populations hold significant potential for facilitating coral reef
survival under rapid climate change. However, it remains poorly understood whether they …

Reef‐building corals in the genus Porites are one of the most important constituents of Indo‐
Pacific reefs. Many species within this genus tolerate abnormally warm water and exhibit …

Our understanding of the response of reef‐building corals to changes in their physical
environment is largely based on laboratory experiments, analysis of long‐term field data …

Exposure to high‐frequency temperature variability often but not always enhances coral
heat tolerance, raising the question of whether this depends on the type of variability regime …

Coral reefs are severely threatened by climate change and recurrent mass bleaching
events, highlighting the need for a better understanding of the factors driving recovery and …
