Reconstructing Four Centuries of Temperature-Induced Coral Bleaching on the Great Barrier Reef
Mass coral bleaching events during the last 20 years have caused major concern over the future of coral reefs worldwide. Despite damage to key ecosystem engineers, little is known about bleaching frequency prior to 1979 when regular modern systematic ...

ECOLOGICAL IMPACT OF BLEACHING EVENT 2010 IN NORTHERN ACEH
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 ...

Unprecedented mass bleaching and loss of coral across 12° of latitude in Western Australia in 2010-11. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Globally, coral bleaching has been responsible for a significant decline in both coral cover and diversity over the past two decades. During the summer of 2010-11, anomalous large-scale ocean warming induced unprecedented levels of coral ...

Symbiont starvation affects the stability of the coral–Symbiodiniaceae symbiosis
Coral bleaching, the breakdown of the coral-Symbiodiniaceae association has been identified as a major cause of coral reef decline worldwide. When symbiont functions are compromised, corals receive fewer photosynthetic products from their symbionts and ...

Forecasting global coral bleaching [PDF]
Predicting coral bleaching is critical to better manage and preserve coral reefs from global warming. An impressive coordination of surveys across oceans now offers new metrics to help to predict coral bleaching events on a global scale.

Metabolomic signatures of coral bleaching history [PDF]
AbstractCoral bleaching, a process where corals expel their photosynthetic symbionts, has a profound impact on the health and function of coral reefs. As global ocean temperatures continue to rise, bleaching poses the greatest threat to coral reef ecosystems. Here, untargeted metabolomics was used to analyze the biochemicals in pairs of adjacent corals

An enigmatic decoupling between heat stress and coral bleaching on the Great Barrier Reef [PDF]
Ocean warming threatens the functioning of coral reef ecosystems by inducing mass coral bleaching and mortality events. The link between temperature and coral bleaching is now well-established based on observations that mass bleaching events usually ...

Mass coral bleaching in the northern Persian Gulf, 2012
Coral bleaching events due to elevated temperatures are increasing in both frequency and magnitude worldwide. Mass bleaching was recorded at five sites in the northern Persian Gulf during August and September 2012. Based on available seawater temperature
