Non‐random community changes are becoming more frequent in many ecosystems. In coral
reefs, changes towards communities dominated by other than hard corals are increasing in …

Blue carbon has been proposed as a nature-based solution for climate change mitigation;
however, a limited number of published works and data and knowledge gaps hinder the …

Following a series of mass-bleaching events that have seriously degraded coral reefs,
notably the Great Barrier Reef of Australia, a common narrative is now dominating the …

For the countries bordering the tropical Western Indian Ocean (TWIO), living marine
resources are vital for food security. However, this region has largely escaped the attention …

Documenting post-bleaching trajectories of coral reef communities is crucial to understand
their resilience to climate change. We investigated reef community changes following the …

Coral recruitment and successive growth are essential for post-disturbance reef recovery. As
coral recruit and juvenile abundances vary across locations and under different …

Coral reefs are increasingly impacted by climate-induced warming events. However, there is
limited empirical evidence on the variation in the response of shallow coral reef communities …

Aim Rising ocean temperatures are widely recognized as the dominant driver behind the
rapid degradation of coral reefs via the process of coral bleaching (the expulsion of …

Introduction Coral bleaching immediately impacts the reef benthos, but effects on fish
communities are less well understood because they are often delayed and confounded by …

We explored the extent of post-bleaching impacts, caused by the 2014–2016 El Niño
Southern Oscillation (ENSO) event, on benthic community structure (BCS) and herbivores …
