TL;DR: The Caribbean has the largest proportion of corals in high extinction risk categories, whereas the Coral Triangle has the highest proportion of species in all categories of elevated extinction risk.

J. E. N. Veron,Ove Hoegh-Guldberg,Timothy M. Lenton,Janice M. Lough,David Obura,P. Pearce-Kelly,Charles Sheppard,Mark Spalding,Mark Spalding,M. G. Stafford-Smith,Alex Rogers +10 more
TL;DR: For example, if CO2 levels are allowed to reach 450 ppm (due to occur by 2030-2040 at the current rates), reefs will be in rapid and terminal decline world-wide from multiple synergies arising from mass bleaching, ocean acidification, and other environmental impacts as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Predicted recurrences of mass coral mortality in the Indian Ocean
TL;DR: In this article, the authors scale forecast sea surface temperature (SST) at 33 Indian Ocean sites where most shallow corals died in 1998 to identify geographical patterns in the timing of probable repeat occurrences.
