Effects of bleaching-associated mass coral mortality on reef structural complexity across a gradient of local disturbance

Structural complexity underpins the ecological functioning of coral reefs. However, rising ocean temperatures and associated coral bleaching threaten the structural integrity of these important ecosystems. Despite the increased frequency of coral bleaching events, few studies to date have examined c...
