The 2014 coral bleaching and freshwater flood events in Kāneʻohe Bay, Hawaiʻi [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2015
Until recently, subtropical Hawaiʻi escaped the major bleaching events that have devastated many tropical regions, but the continued increases in global long-term mean temperatures and the apparent ending of the Pacific Decadal Oscillation (PDO) cool ...

Coral bleaching patterns are the outcome of complex biological and environmental networking

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology, 2019
Continued declines in coral reef health over the past three decades have been punctuated by severe mass coral bleaching‐induced mortality events that have grown in intensity and frequency under climate change.

Understanding marine biodiversity patterns and drivers: The fall of Icarus

open access: yesMarine Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Biodiversity patterns are fundamental in our understanding of the distribution of life, ecosystem function, and conservation. In this concept analysis, A survey of the existing knowledge on marine biodiversity patterns and drivers across latitudes, longitudes, and depths indicates that none of the postulated patterns represent a rule.

SWITCHING ON CORAL BLEACHING [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Biology, 2006
![Figure][1] Growing up on the Venezuelan coast, Santiago Perez spent much of his childhood camping on the keyes and visiting the coral reefs of Morrocoy Park. But over the years, Perez realised that the reefs were failing.

Cryptic lineages respond differently to coral bleaching

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, 2020
Coral cover is decreasing worldwide largely as a result of a rise in seawater temperatures that triggers coral bleaching and induces coral mortality. How coral reefs will respond to climate change will be a function of genetic variation and how it is ...

Assisted recovery of tissue loss in massive corals Orbicella faveolata: an alternative conservation tool for restoring damaged colonies

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Coral reefs, vital for marine ecosystems and human well‐being, face drastic decline due to climate change effects. In the Caribbean, global disturbances and regional water pollution exacerbate conditions, eliciting disease outbreaks that, in synergy with coral bleaching and hurricanes, cause significant damage to key reef‐building

The Coral Larval Box “CoLaB”: a novel and low‐cost method for delivering competent coral larvae onto degraded reefs for restoration

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Coral reef restoration strategies are rapidly evolving to restore corals and reef functions in response to accelerating disturbances worldwide. One active restoration technique that is rapidly gaining momentum is the larval enhancement method which involves the introduction of cultured coral larvae directly onto degraded reefs ...

Enhancing coral restoration in the Philippines through governance and policy integration

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Coral restoration is an increasingly used tool to support marine conservation and management, yet its effectiveness is influenced by its integration with coastal policy and governance landscapes. In the Philippines, the rapid expansion of coral restoration projects in recent decades highlighted significant governance challenges, from

Potential Impacts of Climate Interventions on Marine Ecosystems

open access: yesReviews of Geophysics, Volume 64, Issue 1, March 2026.
Abstract Rising global temperatures pose significant risks to marine ecosystems, biodiversity, and fisheries. Recent comprehensive assessments suggest that large‐scale mitigation efforts to limit warming are falling short, and all feasible future climate projections, including those that represent optimistic emissions reductions, exceed the Paris ...

Highly variable taxa-specific coral bleaching responses to thermal stresses

open access: yes, 2020
Complex histories of chronic and acute sea surface temperature (SST) stresses are expected to trigger taxonand location-specific responses that will ultimately lead to novel coral communities. The 2016 El Niño-Southern Oscillation provided an opportunity
