Improved Characterization of Coral Bleaching Patterns From a Percentile‐Based Threshold Model

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 7, 16 April 2026.
Abstract Tropical corals are increasingly threatened by anthropogenic global warming and marine heatwaves. However, questions remain about how to best characterize potential heat stress relevant to coral bleaching. The degree heating week (DHW) metric has guided bleaching risk assessments for ∼25 years.

Coral Reefs

2017
Abstract Coral reefs are the ocean’s richest ecosystem in terms of biodiversity and productivity. They are restricted to tropical waters, where conditions of salinity, temperature and sedimentation are suitable. Where they grow, their main benthic organisms deposit substantial limestone skeletons, such that they effectively make their ...

Coral Reef Catastrophe

Science, 1994
The article" Catastrophes, phase shifts,and large-scale degradation of a Caribbean coral reef" by Terence P. Hughes (9 Sept., p.1547) relates the sad story of the decline of scleractinian coral populations in Jamaica over the past two decades. The article is a rare example of the long-term research needed to document trends on reefs; however, the ...
