<title>Abstract</title> Ocean warming is increasing the incidence, scale, and severity of global-scale coral bleaching mortality, culminating in third global event that occurred during record marine heatwaves 2014-2017. While local effects these events have been widely reported, implications remain unknown. Analysis 15,066 reef surveys 2014-2017 revealed 80% surveyed reefs experienced significant 35% mortality. The extent mortality was assessed by extrapolating results from using...
Long-term ecological monitoring is indispensable to identify and document changes from the triple planetary crisis of climate change, pollution biodiversity loss. Coral reefs are some most biodiverse threatened Earth’s ecosystems. Accurate information on status trends coral equips decision makers with fundamental support protection these vital marine ecosystems.Monitoring conducted for many purposes, at various temporal resolutions geographic scales, using sampling techniques indicators. The...
Abstract Aim Mega‐diverse coral reef ecosystems are declining globally, necessitating conservation prioritizations to protect biodiversity and ecosystem services of sites with high functional integrity promote persistence. In practice however, the design marine‐protected area (MPA) systems often relies on broad classifications habitat class size, making tacit assumption that all reefs comparable condition. We explored impact this through a novel, pragmatic approach for incorporating...
