Journal ArticleDOI

Global warming and recurrent mass bleaching of corals

TL;DR: The distinctive geographic footprints of recurrent bleaching on the Great Barrier Reef in 1998, 2002 and 2016 were determined by the spatial pattern of sea temperatures in each year, suggesting that local protection of reefs affords little or no resistance to extreme heat.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ocean acidification causes bleaching and productivity loss in coral reef builders

TL;DR: Comparing bleaching, productivity, and calcification responses of crustose coralline algae and branching and branching coral species in response to acidification and warming suggests sensitive reef-building species such as CCA may be pushed beyond their thresholds for growth and survival within the next few decades.
Journal ArticleDOI

Competition between corals and algae on coral reefs : a review of evidence and mechanisms

TL;DR: It is concluded that competition between corals and algae probably is widespread on coral reefs, but also that the interaction varies considerably, and a matrix for algal effects on corals is proposed, which lists the subset of processes possible for each combination of coral life form and algal functional group.
Journal ArticleDOI

Caribbean corals in crisis: record thermal stress, bleaching, and mortality in 2005.

C. Mark Eakin, +70 more

TL;DR: Comparison of satellite data against field surveys demonstrated a significant predictive relationship between accumulated heat stress (measured using NOAA Coral Reef Watch's Degree Heating Weeks) and bleaching intensity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ocean acidification and warming will lower coral reef resilience

TL;DR: In this article, the authors analyzed how different combinations of CO2 and fishing pressure on herbivores will affect the ecological resilience of a simplified benthic reef community, as defined by its capacity to maintain and recover to coral-dominated states.
