Mesophotic coral bleaching associated with changes in thermocline depth
As global temperatures continue to rise, shallow coral reef bleaching has become more
intense and widespread. Mesophotic coral ecosystems reside in deeper (30–150 m), cooler …

Oceanic differences in coral-bleaching responses to marine heatwaves
T Shlesinger, R van Woesik - Science of the Total Environment, 2023 - Elsevier
Anomalously high ocean temperatures have increased in frequency, intensity, and duration
over the last several decades because of greenhouse gas emissions that cause global …

Ocean currents magnify upwelling and deliver nutritional subsidies to reef-building corals during El Niño heatwaves
Marine heatwaves are triggering coral bleaching events and devastating coral populations
globally, highlighting the need to identify processes promoting coral survival. Here, we show …

Nutrient-supplying ocean currents modulate coral bleaching susceptibility
With predictions that mass coral bleaching will occur annually within this century,
conservation efforts must focus their limited resources based on an accurate understanding …

Offshore pelagic subsidies dominate carbon inputs to coral reef predators
Coral reefs were traditionally perceived as productive hot spots in oligotrophic waters. While
modern evidence indicates that many coral reef food webs are heavily subsidized by …
