TL;DR: This study presents a framework for assessing three dimensions of climate change vulnerability, namely sensitivity, exposure and adaptive capacity, and finds that high concentration areas for species with traits conferring highest sensitivity and lowest adaptive capacity differ from those of highly exposed species.
Journal ArticleDOI
Delineating the Coral Triangle
J. E. N. Veron,Lyndon DeVantier,Emre Turak,Alison Green,Stuart Kininmonth,Mary Stafford-Smith,Nate Peterson +6 more
TL;DR: This study shows that the Coral Triangle, an area extending from the Philippines to the Solomon Islands, has 605 zooxanthellate corals including 15 re- gional endemics, which amounts to 76% of the world's total species complement, giving this province theWorld's highest conservation priority.
Journal ArticleDOI
Changes in algal, coral and fish assemblages along water quality gradients on the inshore Great Barrier Reef.
TL;DR: The study identifies species groups that are likely to increase or decrease in abundance with changing water quality, whereas fish and macroalgal assemblages consisted of contrasting suites of species.
Journal ArticleDOI
Overview of distribution patterns of zooxanthellate Scleractinia
TL;DR: This publication is an overview of a detailed study of coral distribution, diversity and affinities worldwide, based on comprehensive global assessments of the world’s 150 coral ecoregions.
