Irradiance Level Only Moderately Affects Thermal Bleaching in the Stony Coral <i>Stylophora pistillata</i>

Light is considered an important co-factor in causing thermal bleaching in photosymbiotic corals. To quantify the effects of light strength on thermal bleaching, colonies of the stony coral <i>Stylophora pistillata</i> were experimentally subjected to a gradual increase in temperature (1...
