The global impacts of climate change are evident in every marine ecosystem. On coral reefs,
mass coral bleaching and mortality have emerged as ubiquitous responses to ocean …

Coral reefs rely upon the highly optimized coral–Symbiodiniaceae symbiosis, making them
sensitive to environmental change and susceptible to anthropogenic stress. Coral bleaching …

Recurrent mass bleaching events are pushing coral reefs worldwide to the brink of
ecological collapse. While the symptoms and consequences of this breakdown of the coral …

Coral reef ecosystems are being fundamentally restructured by local human impacts and
climate-driven marine heatwaves that trigger mass coral bleaching and mortality. Reducing …

Coral reefs are highly diverse ecosystems that thrive in nutrient-poor waters, a phenomenon
frequently referred to as the Darwin paradox. The energy demand of coral animal hosts can …

Coral bleaching is the detrimental expulsion of algal symbionts from their cnidarian hosts,
and predominantly occurs when corals are exposed to thermal stress. The incidence and …

Corals and the reef ecosystems that they support are in global decline due to increasing
anthropogenic pressures such as climate change. However, effective reef conservation …

The severity of marine heatwaves (MHWs) that are increasingly impacting ocean
ecosystems, including vulnerable coral reefs, has primarily been assessed using remotely …

Coastal oceans are increasingly eutrophic, warm and acidic through the addition of
anthropogenic nitrogen and carbon, respectively. Among the most sensitive taxa to these …

Mass coral bleaching events caused by elevated seawater temperatures result in extensive
coral loss throughout the tropics, and are projected to increase in frequency and severity. If …
