The potential for coral reefs to adapt to a changing climate - an eco-evolutionary modelling perspective

Roger Cropp and John Norbury

Ecological Modelling, 2020, vol. 426, issue C

Abstract: Coral reef systems are under increasing pressure to adapt to rapidly varying environmental conditions, in particular increasing ocean temperatures. A question of major concern is whether coral reefs can adapt to and survive the predicted increases in global temperatures over the remainder of this century.
