Genotype by environment interactions in coral bleaching. [PDF]
Proc Biol Sci, 2021 Climate-driven reef decline has prompted the development of next-generation coral conservation strategies, many of which hinge on the movement of adaptive variation across genetic and environmental gradients.

The role of the endolithic alga Ostreobium spp. during coral bleaching recovery. [PDF]
Sci Rep, 2022 In this study, we explore how the Caribbean coral Orbicella faveolata recovers after bleaching, using fragments from 13 coral colonies exposed to heat stress (32 °C) for ten days.

A novel paleo-bleaching proxy using boron isotopes and high-resolution laser ablation to reconstruct coral bleaching events [PDF]
Biogeosciences, 2015 Coral reefs occupy only ~ 0.1 percent of the ocean's habitat, but are the most biologically diverse marine ecosystem. In recent decades, coral reefs have experienced a significant global decline due to a variety of causes, one of the major causes being ...

Coral reef bleaching monitoring based on multitime Landsat-8 remote sensing image series
地质科技通报, 2022 In recent years, due to the influence of human activities and global warming, the coral reef ecosystem in the South China Sea (SCS) has degraded, and bleaching occurs.

Coral bleaching response is unaltered following acclimatization to reefs with distinct environmental conditions. [PDF]
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A, 2021 Significance Ocean warming has caused catastrophic losses of corals on reefs worldwide and is intensifying faster than the adaptive rate of most coral populations that remain.

High-resolution modeling of thermal thresholds and environmental influences on coral bleaching for local and regional reef management [PDF]
PeerJ, 2018 Coral reefs are one of the world’s most threatened ecosystems, with global and local stressors contributing to their decline. Excessive sea-surface temperatures (SSTs) can cause coral bleaching, resulting in coral death and decreases in coral cover.

Emergent increase in coral thermal tolerance reduces mass bleaching under climate change
Nature Communications, 2023 Recurrent mass bleaching events threaten the future of coral reefs. To persist under climate change, corals will need to endure progressively more intense and frequent marine heatwaves, yet it remains unknown whether their thermal tolerance can keep pace
