Abstract
Hotspots – sites with high temperatures – are expected to favor heat-tolerant organisms. Lachs et al. tested this assumption with Palau corals. Surprisingly, heat-tolerant individuals originated in both hotspots and cool refugia, with energy reserves giving a tolerance boost. Protecting ecological networks across environmental gradients can maintain high thermal trait diversity.
