Differential susceptibility of Red Sea Pocilloporidae corals to UVB highlights photoacclimation potential
Despite being exposed to extreme water temperatures and solar irradiances, Red Sea corals are relatively resistant to bleaching. While their thermal tolerance is well described, little is known about their resistance to ultraviolet-B radiation (UVB). Here, we performed a short-term (2 days) UVB-remo...
