Coral distribution and bleaching vulnerability areas in Southwestern Atlantic under ocean warming
Abstract Global climate change is a major threat to reefs by increasing the frequency and severity of coral bleaching events over time, reducing coral cover and diversity. Ocean warming may cause shifts in coral communities by increasing temperatures above coral’s upper thermal limits in tropical re...
