Standardized short-term bleaching assays resolve differences in coral thermotolerance across microhabitat reef sites

Coral bleaching is now the main driver of reef degradation. The common notion is that most corals bleach and suffer mortality at just 1-2°C above their mean summer maximum temperatures, but some species and genotypes resist or recover better than others. Here we conducted a series of 18-hour short-t...
