Figure 2.

Actual and modelled (a) visual bleaching condition (health chart scale 1–5) and (b) mortality (%) show contrasting trends in the three populations over time. Keppel and Davies Reef corals bleached and showed high mortality during the summer months. Surviving Keppel Island corals recovered in late summer. No bleaching and very low mortality were observed in Magnetic Island corals. Points represent individual colonies and shaded areas are residual error variances.
