Mortality rates of scleractinian corals before and during a mass bleaching event
Open accessAbstract
Mass bleaching of shallow-water corals was observed at Lizard Island and at other locations on the Great Barrier Reef in early 1982.In a patch-reef community at Lizard Island, mortality rates of scleractinian corals from 4 families were higher during the period of bleaching than during the previous year.It is postulated that bleaching may be the result of penetration of high levels of UV radiation dunng the time of maximum annual water temperature.Mortality rates varied amongst the coral species studied, and they were generally higher in smaller colonies.The coral mortality rates recorded are comparable with those reported in similar studies of reef-flat and reef-crest habitats.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
