Coral reefs rely upon the highly optimized coral–Symbiodiniaceae symbiosis, making them
sensitive to environmental change and susceptible to anthropogenic stress. Coral bleaching …

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 …

Recurrent mass bleaching events are pushing coral reefs worldwide to the brink of
ecological collapse. While the symptoms and consequences of this breakdown of the coral …

Global climate change has profound implications on species distributions and ecosystem
functioning. In the coastal zone, ecological responses may be driven by various …

Corals depend on a mutualistic symbiosis with intracellular dinoflagellates of the genus
Symbiodinium for their energetic needs. The high productivity of corals in a challenging …

The disruption of the coral–algae symbiosis (coral bleaching) due to rising sea surface
temperatures has become an unprecedented global threat to coral reefs. Despite decades of …

Nitrogen pollution increases the susceptibility of corals to heat-induced bleaching. However,
different forms of nitrogen (nitrate vs. ammonium/urea) may have different impacts on …

Given the recent trend towards establishing very large marine protected areas (MPAs) and
the high potential of these to contribute to global conservation targets, we review outcomes …

Mass coral bleaching represents one of the greatest threats to coral reefs and has mainly
been attributed to seawater warming. However, reduced water quality can also interact with …

The juxtaposition of highly productive coral reef ecosystems in oligotrophic waters has
spurred substantial interest and progress in our understanding of macronutrient uptake …
