effeCts on CorAl reefs
A hurricane (also tropical cyclone, typhoon) is a warm-core, low-pressure system that develops over tropical or subtropical waters. Most hurricanes form from a trough of low-pressure, over ocean surface temperatures greater than 26°C. As air moves across the ocean surface, it extracts moisture (water vapour) and energy (as a result of evaporation) from the ocean. The low pressure draws air inwa...

متن کاملUnderstanding the Effects of Climate Change on Coral Reefs
Table S1. Recently documented (last 5 years) effects of climate change on reef corals (a) declining coral cover; (b) reduced diversity and shifts in coral community composition; (c) declining or low rates of coral calcification; (d) favourable conditions for higher latitude corals; (e) recent adaptation and/or acclimatisation (<20 years); and (f) longer term adaptation and/or acclimatisation (u...
متن کاملEvidence for multiple stressor interactions and effects on coral reefs.
Concern is growing about the potential effects of interacting multiple stressors, especially as the global climate changes. We provide a comprehensive review of multiple stressor interactions in coral reef ecosystems, which are widely considered to be one of the most sensitive ecosystems to global change. First, we synthesized coral reef studies that examined interactions of two or more stresso...
متن کاملEpiphytic cyanobacteria maintain shifts to macroalgal dominance on coral reefs following ENSO disturbance.
Macroalgal dominance of some tropical reef communities in the Eastern Pacific after coral mortality during the 1997-1998 El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO) was facilitated by protection from herbivory by epiphytic cyanobacteria. Our results do not support that reduction in number of herbivores was a necessary precursor to coral reef decline and shifts to algal reefs in this system. Rather, mac...
