A public lecture by Emily Darling, the David H Smith Conservation Research Postdoctoral Fellow, University of North Carolina.
Coral reefs are increasingly threatened by local and global stressors and there is mounting evidence that reefs are shifting into new species and communities. What will coral reefs look like in the future, and what ecosystem goods and services will altered reefs continue to provide? This lecture by Emily Darling, the David H Smith Conservation Research Postdoctoral Fellow, University of North Carolina, will outline a new, trait-based approach that she and her fellow researchers have used to classify life-history strategies for global scleractinian corals, which can be used to assess how reef-building corals are changing in response to human pressures.
