Multi-decadal changes in structural complexity following mass coral mortality on a Caribbean reef

<p>In recent decades, extensive mortality of reef-building corals throughout the Caribbean region has led to the erosion of reef frameworks and declines in biodiversity. Using field observations, structural models, and high-precision U–Th dating methods, we quantify changes in structural compl...
