Conservation action in a changing climate (2008, unknown): “and suffered 0-95% coral mortality, depending on lo cation ( Goreau et al. 2000 ).”
Is There a Relationship between Proximity to Sewage Effluent and the Prevalence of Coral Disease (2005, background): “Despite a few studies that have attempted to examine the relationships between coral disease and water pollution (Mitchell and Chet 1975; Antonius 1981), the role of anthropogenic influence remains unclear (Green and Bruckner 2000).”
Effects of the 1996 and 1998 positive sea-surface temperature anomalies on corals, coral diseases and fish in the Arabian Gulf (Dubai, UAE) (2002, background): “It is generally accepted that the 1998 sea-surface temperature (SST) anomaly and bleaching event caused widespread perturbations in Indo-Pacific coral systems, and it is considered by many to have been the most important bleaching event documented so far (Wilkinson 1998, 2000; Goreau et al. 2000).”
Phase shifts and the role of herbivory in the resilience of coral reefs (2007, background): “The global bleaching event of 1998 led to the greatest coral mortalities on record worldwide (HoeghGuldberg 1999; Goreau et al. 2000) but the Indian Ocean was most severely affected (Sheppard 2003).”
The relationship between bleaching and mortality of common corals (2004, background): “Bleaching has, however, been associated with a large-scale loss of coral cover (Glynn 2000; Goreau et al. 2000; Mumby et al. 2001; Riegl 2002; Aronson et al. 2002).”
Changes in Biodiversity and Functioning of Reef Fish Assemblages following Coral Bleaching and Coral Loss (2011, background): “geographic extent of mass (multi-specific) bleaching events has been increasing since 1979 [17,18], and culminated in the 1998 global mass-bleaching event, which caused widespread bleaching in the Pacific, Indian and Atlantic oceans [19].”
Multiple disturbances and the global degradation of coral reefs: are reef fishes at risk or resilient? (2006, background): “In contrast, coral bleaching, which is expected to become more severe and frequent in coming decades (Hoegh-Guldberg, 1999; Sheppard, 2003), may cause degradation throughout entire reef systems (Goreau et al., 2000).”
Photoinhibition of photosynthesis is reduced by water flow in the reef-building coral Acropora digitifera (2005, background): “In the last 3 decades mass coral bleaching events have damaged and, in many localities, caused longterm changes to coral communities (Glynn 1991, Goreau & Hayes 1994, Wilkinson 1999, Goreau et al. 2000, Loya et al. 2001, Sheppard et al. 2002, Hughes et al. 2003).”
Coral mortality versus structural collapse as drivers of corallivorous butterflyfish decline (2009, background): “…highlight that although the decline in coral cover in the inner Seychelles due to the 1998 bleaching event was immediate and represented a 90% loss (Goreau et al. 2000; Sheppard 2003), there was a delay in the loss of structural complexity (Engelhardt 2004), and by 2005 the 21 reefs surveyed were…”
