Climate change and warming ocean temperatures are a threat to coral reef ecosystems.
Since the 1980s, there has been an increase in mass coral bleaching and associated coral …

Ocean warming threatens the functioning of coral reef ecosystems by inducing mass coral
bleaching and mortality events. The link between temperature and coral bleaching is now …

Thermal-stress events associated with climate change cause coral bleaching and mortality
that threatens coral reefs globally. Yet coral bleaching patterns vary spatially and temporally …

Warm-water growth and survival of corals are constrained by a set of environmental
conditions such as temperature, light, nutrient levels and salinity. Water temperatures of 1 to …

Thermal‐stress events that cause coral bleaching and mortality have recently increased in
frequency and severity. Yet few studies have explored conditions that moderate coral …

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 …

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 …

As global temperatures continue to rise, shallow coral reef bleaching has become more
intense and widespread. Mesophotic coral ecosystems reside in deeper (30–150 m), cooler …

Increases in coral bleaching events over the past 20 years are correlated with increases in
sea surface temperature (SST). While SSTs have increased everywhere in the tropics, and …

The relationship between thermal stress and coral bleaching has been a topic of study for
decades, yet there is still a mismatch between remotely sensed bleaching predictors and …
