Global climate change and localized anthropogenic stressors are driving rapid declines in
coral reef health. In vitro experiments have been fundamental in providing insight into how …

The worldwide decline of coral reefs has renewed interest in coral communities at the edge
of environmental limits because they have the potential to serve as resilience hotspots and …

Thermal refugia underpin climate-smart management of coral reefs, but whether current
thermal refugia will remain so under future warming is uncertain. We use statistical …

The deep sea plays a critical role in global climate regulation through uptake and storage of
heat and carbon dioxide. However, this regulating service causes warming, acidification and …

The rapid deterioration of coral reefs worldwide has led to a growing interest in identifying
areas that can offer protection against adverse conditions including coral reef communities …

The peculiar shallow-water reefs of the Tropical Southwestern Atlantic Ocean have thrived in
conditions considered suboptimal (eg, moderate turbidity, higher level of nutrients, and …

Identifying locations of refugia from the thermal stresses of climate change for coral reefs
and better managing them is one of the key recommendations for climate change …

Reducing the global reliance on fossil fuels is essential to ensure the long-term survival of
coral reefs, but until this happens, alternative tools are required to safeguard their future …

The occurrence of coral reef communities under extreme and different-from-optimum
conditions makes it possible to test hypotheses about resilience in the face of increasing …

Understanding the resilience of temperate reefs to climate change requires exploring the
recovery capacity of their habitat-forming species from recurrent marine heatwaves (MHWs) …
