Coral reefs support high biological diversity of marine life, and are highly productive ecosystems. Environmental perturbations exert profound influence on coral reefs. Elucidating environmental limits for coral growth and understanding the response of reef habitat suitability to environmental change are central to projecting future impacts of climate change on coral reef ecosystems and their biogeography under changing environmental conditions. I use the diagnostic model ReefHab in combination with most recent environmental variables to define the coral reef tolerance limits. By using the global data of coral reef occurrence as a proxy for their long-term adaptation to contextual environmental conditions, I calculate the reef habitat suita...
