Herbivore functions in the hot-seat: Resilience of Acanthurus triostegus to marine heatwaves.

Herbivore functions in the hot-seat: Resilience of Acanthurus triostegus to marine heatwaves.

Herbivorous fishes play a crucial role in the conservation of coral reefs threatened by thermal stress (e.g., marine heatwaves and long-term ocean warming) by helping to maintain reefs in a coral-dominated state via the removal of algae. However, as thermally sensitive ectotherms, rising thermal str...
