Abstract Abstract: In 2015–2016, record temperatures triggered a pan‐tropical episode of
coral bleaching. In the southern hemisphere summer of March–April 2016, we used aerial …

Abstract The Great Barrier Reef (GBR) experienced its most intensive and extensive coral
bleaching event on record in early 1998. Mild bleaching commenced in late January and …

Detailed mapping of coral bleaching events provides an opportunity to examine spatial
patterns in bleaching over scales of 10 s to 1,000 s of km and the spatial correlation between …

The southern Arabian Gulf houses some of the most thermally tolerant corals on earth, but
severe bleaching in the late 1990s caused widespread mortality. More than a decade later …

Widespread coral bleaching and subsequent mortality have been clearly linked to elevated
sea surface temperatures. As ocean temperatures continue to increase in relation to the …

While many studies of coral bleaching report on broad, regional scale responses, fewer
examine variation in susceptibility among coral taxa and changes in community structure …

Coral bleaching caused by rising sea temperature is a primary cause of coral reef
degradation. However, bleaching patterns often show significant spatial variability, therefore …

Large-scale coral bleaching episodes are potentially major disturbances to coral reef
systems, yet a definitive picture of variation in assemblage response and species …

The recurrence of mass coral bleaching and associated coral mortality in the past few
decades have raised questions about the future of coral reef ecosystems. Although 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 …
