Climate-change refugia in the sheltered bays of Palau: analogs of future reefs
Robert van Woesik,Peter Houk,Adelle Lukes Isechal,Jacques Wasai Idechong,Steven Victor,Yimnang Golbuu +5 more
TL;DR: The coral-community composition, constant exposure to high temperatures, and high vertical attenuation of light caused by naturally high suspended particulate matter buffered the corals in bays from the 2010 regional thermal-stress event, and nearshore reefs should be given high conservation status.

TL;DR: Comprehensive coral abundance data from 2,584 Indo-Pacific reefs is compiled to evaluate the influence of 21 climate, social and environmental drivers on the ecology of reef coral assemblages and proposes a framework of three management strategies to protect, recover or transform coral reef management.
