Growth rate and adaptive capacity, not just thermal tolerance, are critical for long-term coral persistence under climate change

This study shows that coral population persistence under climate change depends more on growth rate and genetic variance than thermal tolerance alone.

Anthropogenic climate change will likely outpace coral range expansion

The paper models coral range expansion under climate change and finds that range expansion lags behind expected reef decline, highlighting the need for emission reductions.
