Extending the natural adaptive capacity of coral holobionts
Anthropogenic climate change and environmental degradation destroy coral reefs, the
ecosystem services they provide, and the livelihoods of close to a billion people who …

Coral‐bleaching responses to climate change across biological scales
The global impacts of climate change are evident in every marine ecosystem. On coral reefs,
mass coral bleaching and mortality have emerged as ubiquitous responses to ocean …

Smooth and spiky: the importance of variability in marine climate change ecology
Greenhouse gas emissions are warming the ocean with profound consequences at all
levels of organization, from organismal rates to ecosystem processes. The proximate driver …

Microclimate predicts kelp forest extinction in the face of direct and indirect marine heatwave effects
Marine heatwaves threaten the persistence of kelp forests globally. However, the observed
responses of kelp forests to these events have been highly variable on local scales. Here …

Building consensus around the assessment and interpretation of Symbiodiniaceae diversity
Dinoflagellates in the family Symbiodiniaceae occupy multiple ecological niches on tropical,
subtropical, and temperate reefs, ranging from species that are exclusively free-living to …

Symbioses are restructured by repeated mass coral bleaching
Survival of symbiotic reef-building corals under global warming requires rapid acclimation or
adaptation. The impact of accumulated heat stress was compared across 1643 symbiont …

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 …

A global map of human pressures on tropical coral reefs
As human activities on the world's oceans intensify, mapping human pressure is essential to
develop appropriate conservation strategies and prioritize investments with limited …

Symbiosis and host responses to heating
Virtually all organisms are colonized by microbes. Average temperatures are rising because
of global climate change–accompanied by increases in extreme climatic events and heat …

Marine heatwaves threaten cryptic coral diversity and erode associations among coevolving partners
Climate change–amplified marine heatwaves can drive extensive mortality in foundation
species. However, a paucity of longitudinal genomic datasets has impeded understanding of …
