Differential susceptibility of reef-building corals to deoxygenation reveals remarkable hypoxia tolerance

Abstract Ocean deoxygenation threatens the persistence of coastal ecosystems worldwide. Despite an increasing awareness that coastal deoxygenation impacts tropical habitats, there remains a paucity of empirical data on the effects of oxygen limitation on reef-building corals. To address this knowled...
