Concomitant to the decline of tropical corals caused by increasing global sea temperatures
is the potential removal of barriers to species range expansions into subtropical and …

Temperature drives biological responses that scale from the cellular to ecosystem levels and
thermal sensitivity will shape organismal functions and population dynamics as the world …

Aim The capacity for poleward range expansions beyond the tropics in corals hinges on
ecophysiological constraints and resulting responses to climatic variability. We aimed to …

Increasing seawater temperatures are expected to have profound consequences for reef-
building corals' physiology. Understanding how demography changes in response to …

Species have evolved different mechanisms to cope with spatial and temporal temperature
variability. Species with broad geographical distributions may be thermal generalists that …

Thermal performance curves describe the relationship between temperature and the rate of
biological processes. These relationships can vary among species and environments …

Thermal stress affects organism performance differently depending on the ambient
temperature to which they are acclimatized, which varies along latitudinal gradients. This …

Coral reefs are facing unprecedented mass bleaching and mortality events due to marine
heatwaves and climate change. To avoid extirpation, corals must adapt. Individual variation …

Today, warm-water coral reefs are limited to tropical-to-subtropical latitudes. These diverse
ecosystems extended further poleward in the geological past, but the mechanisms driving …

In reef corals, much research has focused on the capacity of corals to acclimatize and/or
adapt to different thermal environments, but the majority of work has focused on distinctions …
