Fine-Tuning Heat Stress Algorithms to Optimise Global Predictions of Mass Coral Bleaching

Fine-Tuning Heat Stress Algorithms to Optimise Global Predictions of Mass Coral Bleaching

Increasingly intense marine heatwaves threaten the persistence of many marine ecosystems. Heat stress-mediated episodes of mass coral bleaching have led to catastrophic coral mortality globally. Remotely monitoring and forecasting such biotic responses to heat stress is key for effective marine ecos...
