Abstract
Understanding the factors that influence coral susceptibility to thermally induced bleaching may aid reef management efforts. Now corals with high symbiont cell densities are shown to be more susceptible to bleaching, indicating that environmental conditions which increase symbiont densities—such as nutrient pollution—could exacerbate climate-induced coral bleaching.
