Heterotrophic compensation: a possible mechanism for resilience of coral reefs to global warming or a sign of prolonged stress? [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
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 behaviour of the coral holobiont, reducing the photosynthetically derived energy ...

Mass coral bleaching in 2010 in the southern Caribbean. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Ocean temperatures are increasing globally and the Caribbean is no exception. An extreme ocean warming event in 2010 placed Tobago's coral reefs under severe stress resulting in widespread coral bleaching and threatening the livelihoods that rely on them.

Whole transcriptome analysis reveals changes in expression of immune-related genes during and after bleaching in a reef-building coral [PDF]

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science, 2015
Climate change is negatively affecting the stability of natural ecosystems, especially coral reefs. The dissociation of the symbiosis between reef-building corals and their algal symbiont, or coral bleaching, has been linked to increased sea surface ...

Cell death and degeneration in the symbiotic dinoflagellates of the coral Stylophora pistillata during bleaching [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Rising sea temperatures are increasing the incidences of mass coral bleaching (the dissociation of the coral–algal symbiosis) and coral mortality. In this study, the effects of bleaching (induced by elevated light and temperature) on the condition of ...

A new, high-resolution global mass coral bleaching database. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
Episodes of mass coral bleaching have been reported in recent decades and have raised concerns about the future of coral reefs on a warming planet. Despite the efforts to enhance and coordinate coral reef monitoring within and across countries, our ...

Coral bleach-out in Belize [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 2000
The highest sea surface temperatures ever recorded, related both to the 1997–98 El Nino/Southern Oscillation and to global warming1, caused severe bleaching of corals worldwide in 1998 (ref. 2). This thermal anomaly induced mass mortality of scleractinian corals on lagoonal reefs in Belize, the first time that a coral population in the Caribbean has ...

The 27–year decline of coral cover on the Great Barrier Reef and its causes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
This study investigates the spatial and temporal dynamics of coral cover, identifies the main drivers of coral mortality, and quantifies the rates of potential recovery of the Great Barrier Reef.The world’s coral reefs are being degraded, and the need to

Coral bleach [PDF]

open access: yesEos, Transactions American Geophysical Union, 1997
With a major El Niño/Southern Oscillation (ENSO) now stirring in the Pacific Ocean, scientists are concerned about the potential impact to fragile coral reefs.The ENSO could trigger massive bleaching of coral reefs in both the Pacific and Atlantic, according C.

ECOLOGICAL IMPACT OF BLEACHING EVENT 2010 IN NORTHERN ACEH

open access: yesJurnal Teknologi Perikanan dan Kelautan, 2014
A drastic increasing in Sea Surface Temperature (SST) was happen in Andaman Sea including in Aceh region from April through end of May 2010. The recent escalations of SST have caused mass coral bleaching event in many places in the world including ...
