Modelling coral calcification accounting for the impacts of coral bleaching and ocean acidification

Coral reefs are diverse ecosystems that are threatened by rising CO<sub>2</sub> levels through increases in sea surface temperature and ocean acidification. Here we present a new unified model that links changes in temperature and carbonate chemistry to coral health. Changes in coral hea...
