Global climate change and localized anthropogenic stressors are driving rapid declines in
coral reef health. In vitro experiments have been fundamental in providing insight into how …

Temperate reefs from around the world are becoming tropicalised, as warm‐water species
shift their distribution towards the poles in response to warming. This is already causing …

Thermal refugia underpin climate-smart management of coral reefs, but whether current
thermal refugia will remain so under future warming is uncertain. We use statistical …

The effects of climate change on the ocean environment–especially ocean warming,
acidification, and sea level rise–will impact fish stocks and fishers in important ways. Likely …

Coral and macroalgal communities are threatened by global stressors. However, recently
reported community shifts from temperate macroalgae to tropical corals offer conservation …

Coral reef declines have been recorded for all major tropical ocean basins since the 1980s,
averaging approximately 30-50% reductions in reef cover globally. These losses are a result …

The worldwide decline of coral reefs has renewed interest in coral communities at the edge
of environmental limits because they have the potential to serve as resilience hotspots and …

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 …

Species that cannot adapt or keep pace with a changing climate are likely to need human
intervention to shift to more suitable climates. While hundreds of articles mention using …

Multinational conservation initiatives that prioritize investment across a region invariably
navigate trade-offs among multiple objectives. It seems logical to focus where several …
