Coupling of palaeontological and neontological reef coral data improves forecasts of biodiversity responses under global climatic change
Reef corals are currently undergoing climatically driven poleward range expansions, with some evidence for equatorial range retractions. Predicting their response to future climate scenarios is critical to their conservation, but ecological models are based only on short-term observations. The fossi...
