Ecosystem service: Coral reefs play an important role for the marine ecosystems, for instance as nurseries for a variety of fish species. (Photo: courtesy of Terry Hughes.) Current Biology 2013 23, R635-R637DOI: (10.1016/j.cub.2013.07.062) Copyright © 2013 Terms and Conditions

Branching out: Corals can return to healthy growth after severe disturbances, but only if human pressures are moderated, a condition increasingly difficult to find in the oceans.
