Modern coral range expansion off southeast Florida falls short of Late Holocene baseline

Communications Earth & Environment
As thermal stress and disease outbreaks decimate coral reefs throughout the tropics, there is growing evidence that higher latitude marine environments may provide crucial refuges for many at-risk, temperature-sensitive coral species.
