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 …

For over three decades, scientists have conducted heat-stress experiments to predict how
coral will respond to ocean warming due to global climate change. However, there are often …

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

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 …

Rising seawater temperature and ocean acidification threaten the survival of coral reefs. The
relationship between coral physiology and its microbiome may reveal why some corals are …

Mixotrophy is among the most successful nutritional strategies in terrestrial and marine
ecosystems. The ability of organisms to supplement primary nutritional modes along …

Thermally induced bleaching has caused a global decline in corals and the frequency of
such bleaching events will increase. Thermal bleaching severely disrupts the trophic …

Mass bleaching events are predicted to occur annually later this century. Nevertheless, it
remains unknown whether corals will be able to recover between annual bleaching events …

Rising atmospheric CO2 concentrations threaten coral reefs globally by causing ocean
acidification (OA) and warming. Yet, the combined effects of elevated p CO2 and …

Symbiotic scleractinian corals are particularly affected by climate change stress and respond
by bleaching (losing their symbiotic dinoflagellate partners). Recently, the energetic status of …
