Dominance shifts, tropicalization and local extinctions are common responses of climate change, but uncertainty surrounds the reliability of predicted coral community transformations. Here, we use species distribution models (SDMs) to assess changes in suitable coral habitat and associated patterns in biodiversity across Western Australia (WA) under present-day and future climate scenarios (RCP 2.6 and RCP 8.5).</p>               </section>                        <section class=\"article-section__content\" id=\"ddi13400-sec-0002\">                              <h3 class=\"article-section__sub-title section1\" id=\"ddi13400-sec-0002-title\"> Location</h3>                              <p>Coral reef systems and communities in WA.</p>               </section>                        <section class=\"article-section__content\" id=\"ddi13400-sec-0003\">                              <h3 class=\"article-section__sub-title section1\" id=\"ddi13400-sec-0003-title\"> Methods</h3>                              <p>We developed SDMs with model prediction uncertainty analyses, using specimen-based occurrence records of 188 hermatypic scleractinian coral species and seven variables to estimate present-day and future changes to coral species distribution and biodiversity patterns in WA under climate change conditions.</p>               </section>                        <section class=\"article-section__content\" id=\"ddi13400-sec-0004\">                              <h3 class=\"article-section__sub-title section1\" id=\"ddi13400-sec-0004-title\"> Results</h3>                              <p>We found that suitable habitat is predicted to increase across all regions in WA under RCP<sup>2050</sup><sub>2.6</sub>, RCP<sup>2050</sup><sub>8.5</sub> and RCP <sup>2100</sup><sub>2.6</sub> scenarios with all tropical and subtropical regions remaining coral biodiversity strongholds. Under the extreme RCP<sup>2100</sup><sub>8.5</sub> scenario, however, a clear tropicalization trend could be observed with coral species expanding their range to mid-high latitude regions, while a substantial drop in coral species richness was predicted at low latitude tropical coral reefs, such as the inshore Kimberley and offshore NW reefs. Despite the predicted expansion south, we identified a net decline in coral biodiversity across the WA coastline.</p>               </section>                        <section class=\"article-section__content\" id=\"ddi13400-sec-0005\">                              <h3 class=\"article-section__sub-title section1\" id=\"ddi13400-sec-0005-title\"> Main conclusions</h3>                              <p>Results from the models predicted higher net coral biodiversity loss at low latitude tropical regions compared with net gains at mid-high latitude regions under RCP<sup>2100</sup><sub>8.5</sub>. These results are likely to be representative of latitudinal trends across the Southern Hemisphere and highlight that increases in habitat suitability at higher latitudes may not lead to equivalent biodiversity benefits. Urgent action is needed to limit climate change to prevent spatial erosion of tropical coral communities, extinction events and loss of tropical ecosystem services.</p>","AbstractOtherLang":null,"BibLvlCode":"AS","StandardTitle":"Diminishing potential for tropical reefs to function as coral diversity strongholds under climate change conditions","OrigTitleLangCode":"en","OrigTitleLangCodeExtended":"eng","OrigTitleLangID":15,"DateLastModified":{"date":"2026-05-27 01:31:35.832555","timezone_type":1,"timezone":"+02:00"},"UserAccessRight":null,"UserAccID":null,"AuthorKeywords":"biodiversity; coral reef; global change ecology; refugia; Scleractinia; transformation; tropicalization; Western Australia","OtherDescriptors":null,"Notes":null,"AnaPub":2021,"MonPub":null,"DateUpdate":"2021-12-06","DateCreate":"2021-12-02","SecASFANote":null,"ConfID":null,"PeerRev":1,"VlizCoreFlag":1,"WoScode":"WOS:000690756600001","VABBcode":null,"OpenAcc":1,"DOI":"10.1111/ddi.13400"},"refs":null,"anarec":{"AnaID":347810,"PubliDate":2021,"Pagination":"2245-2261","XtraPublOfAnaID":null,"ISBN":null,"Volume":"27","Issue":"11","BRefMon":null,"BRefMonRR":null,"BRefXtra":null,"BRefXtraRR":null,"SerBRefID":99812,"SerRR":"Diversity and Distributions.
