This book highlights how Singapore’s coral reef system is responding to changing environmental conditions caused by urbanization and climate change. It provides a fundamental understanding of how reefs respond to decades of chronic urbanization impacts and episodic marine heatwave events, with studies revealing responses at molecular, cellular, organismal, and community levels. Knowing what drives the persistence of coral-dominated reefs through urbanization and global warming impacts will contribute to the formulation of effective conservation strategies.
