Climate change and coral reef bleaching: An ecological assessment of long-term impacts, recovery trends and future outlook (2008, background): “…to low temperatures has long been known (Coles and Jokiel, 1977; Glynn and D’Croz, 1990; Coles and Fadlallah, 1991), but it has only recently been shown that cold stress, like heat stress, leads to bleaching by impairing the function of Photosystem II (Saxby et al., 2003; LaJeunesse et al., 2007).”
Effects of Upwelling, Depth, Morphology and Polyp Size on Feeding in Three Species of Panamanian Corals (2005, background): “…their physiological limits, episodes of water temperatures above (Berkelmans & Oliver 1999, Fitt et al. 2001, Saxby et al. 2003) or below (Porter et al. 1982, Muscatine et al. 1991, Harriott & Banks 2002, Saxby et al. 2003) normal values are known to cause mass coral mortality and bleaching.”
Coral bleaching following wintry weather (2005, background): “The lower threshold of M. digitata from the Heron Island in the laboratory was 12–148C for exposure times of 1–2 d (Saxby et al. 2003).”
Air temperature and winter mortality: Implications for the persistence of the invasive mussel, Perna viridis in the intertidal zone of the south-eastern United States (2011, background): “Conversely, mortality events driven by cold thermal stress have received less attention, particularly at subtropical and tropical latitudes; with the majority of studies describing effects on coral reefs in tropical waters (e.g. Laboy-Nieves et al., 2001; Saxby et al., 2003).”
Testing the photoinhibition model of coral bleaching using chemical inhibitors (2004, methodology): “…previously, for example in response to cyanide exposure (Jones & Hoegh-Guldberg 1999), high irradiance intensities (Jones & Hoegh-Guldberg 2001), reduced salinity (Kerswell & Jones 2003), cold stress (Saxby et al. 2003), and an effluent from the offshore oil and gas industry (Jones & Heyward 2003).”
Summary for Policymakers (2022, unknown): “However, just as anomalously high seawater temperatures have been found to be correlated with coral reef bleaching events, so too have anomalously low seawater temperatures been identified with this phenomenon (Walker et al., 1982; Coles and Fadlallah, 1990; Muscatine et al., 1991; Gates et al., 199”
