Corals are more than the sum of their colonies: a network science perspective on the role of coral complexity and its consequences for coral reef health.

A better understanding of coral reefs as complex adaptive systems responding to multiple perturbations is necessary in determining the near-term fate of coral reefs. By using a complex systems approach, including network analyses, we can begin to piece apart underlying mechanisms for resistance and...
