Beyond corals and fish: the effects of climate change on noncoral benthic invertebrates of tropical reefs (2008, background): “Current research on the impacts of climate change on tropical fauna is biased toward corals (Hoegh-Guldberg, 1999, 2004; Reaser et al., 2000; Willis et al., 2006; Smith et al., 2007; Lough, 2008) and fishes (Roessig et al.”
Biannual spawning, rapid larval development and evidence of self-seeding for scleractinian corals at an isolated system of reefs (2009, methodology): “The subsurface drifters consisted of a cylinder (1 £ 0.1 m) and four PVC sails that were submerged in the water and radiated out from the cylinder by 0.5 m. During this period, water temperatures were quantiWed from SeaBird ScientiWc (SBE19) loggers at 9 m depth, at existing long-term monitoring sit”
Capturing the cornerstones of coral reef resilience: linking theory to practice (2008, background): “…processes and functions are maintained (e.g., abundant coral larvae and herbivores), reefs may eventually revert to their ‘‘original’’ coral state when released from the perturbation, although the distribution of coral species may look different (McClanahan et al. 2007; Smith et al. 2008) (Fig.”
