One-third of reef-building corals face elevated extinction risk from climate change and local impacts

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.
Journal ArticleDOI

Systematically describing gross lesions in corals.

TL;DR: This work provides a framework to systematically describe and name diseases in corals involving 4 steps: naming the disease, describing the lesion, formulating a morphologic diagnosis and (4) formulating an etiologic diagnosis.
