Climate change and coral reef bleaching: An ecological assessment of long-term impacts, recovery trends and future outlook (2008, background): “Clear signatures of mass mortality and associated shifts in coral community structure, have been detected (Bahamas: Curran et al., 1994; Belize: Aronson et al., 2002, 2004; Jamaica: Wapnick et al., 2004).”
Coral bleaching, bleaching-induced mortality, and the adaptive significance of the bleaching response (2008, background): “starvation). Many studies have also noted decreases in tissue thickness in corals recovering from bleaching events (see Szmant and Gassman 1990; Fitt et al. 2001; Mendes and Woodley 2002 ) associated with the metabolism of energy reserves following the loss of photoautotrophy.”
