Bleaching sensitivity over depth for the most abundant coral genera with all surveyed locations combined. Great Barrier Reef only. Stacked bar graphs give relative abundance of each bleaching category within each depth population. Note the occurrence of “bleaching-tolerant” taxa (i.e., Porites, Leptoseris, Acropora and Pocillopora), “bleaching-sensitive” taxa (e.g., Stylophora, Isopora and Montipora) and highly sensitive taxa to bleaching with “dampened response over depth” (i.e., Pachyseris, Dipsastraea and Seriatopora), as sustained by our OLR bleaching model (see Fig. 5 and Supplementary Figure 4). Number of observations noted next to each stacked bar are a valid representation of the depth effect on community composition (shown in Supplementary Figure 3). NA denotes depths at which no individuals were found of that particular taxon
