“…Even though the coral cover increase suggests coral recovery after the events of 2005, the recovery rate was rather slow when compared to recovery rates (ca. 25-35% in 11-13 years) reported in other regions of the world [7][8][9]. For the Mesoamerica Reef, including the MC, subtle but significative increases have also been reported recently [34,39], supporting the trend described here.…”

“…of shallow (5-10 m) coral reefs (Wilkinson et al 1999). Coral communities recovered over the decades that followed 1998 although recovery varied across the Maldives with pronounced recovery 18 in the south (McClanahan 2000;Baker et al 2008;Lasagna et al 2010;Pisapia et al 2016). In line with predictions, mass coral bleaching and mortality has occurred repeatedly across the Indian Ocean (Sheppard 2003).…”

“…The history of mass bleaching for the area studied is more extreme than for many reef areas and provides an opportunity to examine the effects of repeated events. Several mild to severe events have occurred at the Maldives since 1998 [18,25,49,51], and we found evidence for both local extinction and unusual resistance. Three of the most common and widespread reef species (Stylophora pistillata, Seriatopora hystrix and Millepora spp.)…”

“…Three of the most common and widespread reef species (Stylophora pistillata, Seriatopora hystrix and Millepora spp.) reported to be highly sensitive to mass bleaching [12,13,47] were not detected during our extensive study (30 reefs over a 500 km 2 area) or by others in the area [49,51], and may be locally extinct. These species have deep depth distributions, and while they do not appear to have been protected by deep-reef refuge, there is a possibility of remnant populations at depths beyond those studied here [19,52].…”
