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 …

The dual character of corals, that they are both auto‐and heterotrophs, was recognized early
in the twentieth Century. It is generally accepted that the symbiotic association between …

Active coral restoration typically involves two interventions: crossing gametes to facilitate
sexual larval propagation; and fragmenting, growing, and outplanting adult colonies to …

The severity of marine heatwaves (MHWs) that are increasingly impacting ocean
ecosystems, including vulnerable coral reefs, has primarily been assessed using remotely …

Mass coral bleaching events caused by elevated seawater temperatures result in extensive
coral loss throughout the tropics, and are projected to increase in frequency and severity. If …

Coral bleaching is the single largest global threat to coral reefs worldwide. Integrating the
diverse body of work on coral bleaching is critical to understanding and combating this …

Since the early 1980s, episodes of coral reef bleaching and mortality, due primarily to
climate-induced ocean warming, have occurred almost annually in one or more of the …

Trait-based approaches advance ecological and evolutionary research because traits
provide a strong link to an organism's function and fitness. Trait-based research might lead …

As climate change challenges organismal fitness by creating a phenotype–environment
mismatch, phenotypic plasticity generated by epigenetic mechanisms (eg, DNA methylation) …

Mass thermal bleaching events are a primary threat to coral reefs, yet the sublethal impacts,
particularly on energetics and reproduction, are poorly characterized. Given that the …
