Thermal tolerance traits of individual corals are widely distributed across the Great Barrier Reef

The paper quantifies thermal tolerance variation in Acropora spathulata corals across the Great Barrier Reef and finds widespread phenotypic variation and environmental predictors of heat tolerance.

RECIFS: a centralized geo-environmental database for coral reef research and conservation

RECIFS provides an accessible database of environmental data for coral reef research, enabling analysis of environmental drivers and conservation strategies.

Worldwide analysis of reef surveys sorts coral taxa by associations with recent and past heat stress

The paper analyzes global reef survey data to identify how different coral taxa respond to recent and past heat stress, finding taxa-specific patterns of coral cover association with thermal anomalies.

Coral cover surveys corroborate predictions on reef adaptive potential to thermal stress

The paper uses seascape genomics to predict coral reef adaptation to thermal stress and finds that reefs with higher predicted adaptation and connectivity show less coral cover decline after heat stress.

Seascape genomics reveals candidate molecular targets of heat stress adaptation in three coral species

This study uses seascape genomics to identify molecular targets of heat stress adaptation in three coral species, finding heat-associated SNPs near genes involved in DNA repair, protein folding, and stress response pathways.
