Coral reefs are in decline worldwide and monitoring activities are important for assessing
the impact of disturbance on reefs and tracking subsequent recovery or decline. Monitoring …

Coralline algae are foundation species in many hard-bottom ecosystems acting as a
settlement substrate, and binding together and even creating reefs in some locations. Ocean …

Ocean warming and acidification threaten the future growth of coral reefs. This is because
the calcifying coral reef taxa that construct the calcium carbonate frameworks and cement …

Marine heatwaves (MHWs) have been observed around the world and are expected to
increase in intensity and frequency under anthropogenic climate change. A variety of …

Naturally extreme temperature environments can provide important insights into the
processes underlying coral thermal tolerance. We determined the bleaching resistance of …

Marine heat waves (MHW), considered as persistent and spatially extensive sea surface
temperature (SST) anomalies, have emerged as one of the global change-induced high …

Ocean warming and acidification from increasing levels of atmospheric CO2 represent major
global threats to coral reefs, and are in many regions exacerbated by local‐scale …

Abstract In 2015/16, a marine heatwave associated with a record El Niño led to the third
global mass bleaching event documented to date. This event impacted coral reefs around …

Our rapidly warming climate is threatening coral reefs as thermal anomalies trigger mass
coral bleaching events. Deep (or “mesophotic”) coral reefs are hypothesised to act as major …

Under the combined impacts of natural changes and human activities, the past, current, and
future marine heatwaves (MHWs) in China's marginal seas and adjacent offshore waters …
