Left panel shows coral bleaching occurring in the Sekisei Reef (24° N, 124° E), Japan, in September, 2016. Although many coral species are affected by high temperature, it is known that massive or encrusting corals tend to survive even in mass bleaching events. The top of the right panel shows thermal stress sensitive species (Acropora and Pocillopora; losers) and the bottom shows stress tolerant species (Porites and Favites; winners)
