Climate change and coral reef bleaching: An ecological assessment of long-term impacts, recovery trends and future outlook (2008, methodology): “Hydrocorals (Millepora spp.), especially those species with branching or upright platy colony morphologies, also experience high mortality rates and can even disappear locally in some areas (McClanahan, 2000a; Loya et al., 2001; Maté, 2003; McClanahan and Maina, 2003; Schuhmacher et al., 2005).”
Recovery of coral populations after the 1998 bleaching on Shiraho Reef, in the southern Ryukyus, NW Pacific (2002, background): “On the other hand, many other reefs have not yet recovered (McClanahan 2000, Wilkinson 2000).”
Effects of benthic algae on the replenishment of corals and the implications for the resilience of coral reefs (2008, background): “…space on coral reefs, commencing with diatoms, microbes and cyanobacteria, then simple filamentous algae and ccA, followed by more complex filamentous turfs and perhaps by larger, more robust algal types (Mcclanahan 2000, Mcclanahan et al. 2001, Diaz-pulido & Mccook 2002, Diaz-pulido et al. 2007a).”
A corrosive concoction: The combined effects of ocean warming and acidification on the early growth of a stony coral are multiplicative (2011, background): “The strongest ENSO-event so far reported in 1997–98 caused a loss of around 16% of coral reefs on a global scale (Wilkinson, 2004) and virtually destroyed some reefs (McClanahan, 2000).”
Mortality, growth and reproduction in scleractinian corals following bleaching on the Great barrier Reef (2002, background): “These taxa also suffered high levels of whole-colony mortality in the 1998 bleaching event on the GBR (Fabricius 1999, Marshall & Baird 2000) and elsewhere in the Indo-Pacific (Glynn & de Weerdt 1991, McClanahan 2000, Loya et al. 2001).”
Nutrient enrichment on coral reefs: Is it a major cause of coral reef decline? (2002, background): “%) during the 1997– 1998 bleaching events (Wilkinson 1998; McClanahan 2000; Edwards et al. 2001; Lindahl et al. 2001; McClanahan et al. 2001), and bleachingkilled coral is quickly colonized by algae (e.g., Lindahl et al. 2001; McClanahan et al. 2001).”
The relationship between bleaching and mortality of common corals (2004, background): “Many studies have focused on bleaching or mortality but only seldom has the interrelationship between the two factors been examined (Brown and Suharsono 1990; Davies et al. 1997; Marshall and Baird 2000; McClanahan 2000; Loya et al. 2001; Baird and Marshall 2002).”
Effect of bleaching on lipid content and composition of Okinawan corals (2005, background): “Several lines of studies showed that the differential susceptibility of corals to bleaching was linked to colonymorphology.(10,20,23,24) Corals of massive morphs were rather resistant to bleaching than those of branching.”
