Plastic debris exists worldwide and research on microplastic pollution has gradually spread
from the oceans to freshwater and terrestrial systems. Coral reefs not only serve as one of …

Tipping elements are components of the Earth system which may respond nonlinearly to
anthropogenic climate change by transitioning toward substantially different long‐term …

This Report responds to the invitation for IPCC?... to provide a Special Report in 2018 on the
impacts of global warming of 1.5° C above pre-industrial levels and related global …

Tropical reef systems are transitioning to a new era in which the interval between recurrent
bouts of coral bleaching is too short for a full recovery of mature assemblages. We analyzed …

Abstract During 2015–2016, record temperatures triggered a pan-tropical episode of coral
bleaching, the third global-scale event since mass bleaching was first documented in the …

The occurrence of UV-filters in the environment has raised concerns over potentially
adverse impacts on corals. In this study, the concentrations of 13 UV-filters and 11 hormones …

Habitats, such as coral reefs, can mitigate increasing flood damages through coastal
protection services. We provide a fine-scale, national valuation of the flood risk reduction …

Ocean warming has severe impacts on coral reef ecosystems with frequent incidences of
coral bleaching. In addition, eutrophication poses an increasing threat to coral reef …

Microplastics are recognized as a newly emerging threat to marine organisms as they can
be ingested and accumulated through multiple trophic levels. However, microplastic …

There has been a rapid increase in public, political, and scientific interest regarding the
impact of organic ultraviolet (UV) filters to coral reefs. Such filters are found in sunscreens …
