Many of these interventions target naturally heat-tolerant individuals to boost climate resilience, but the challenges of quickly and reliably quantifying heat tolerance and identifying thermotolerant individuals have hampered implementation. Here, we used coral bleaching automated stress systems to perform rapid, standardized heat tolerance assays on 229 colonies of Acropora cervicornis across six coral nurseries spanning Florida's Coral Reef, USA. Analysis of heat stress dose–response curves for each colony revealed a broad range in thermal tolerance among individuals (approx. 2.5°C range in Fv/Fm ED50), with highly reproducible rankings across independent tests (r = 0.76). Most phenotypic variation occurred within nurseries rather than between them, pointing to a potentially dominant role of fixed genetic effects in setting thermal tolerance and widespread distribution of tolerant individuals throughout the population. The identification of tolerant individuals provides immediately actionable information to optimize nursery and restoration programs for Florida's threatened staghorn corals. This work further provides a blueprint for future efforts to identify and source thermally tolerant corals for conservation interventions worldwide.\n\ncdm_data_type = Other\nVARIABLES:\nnursery (unitless)\ncolonyID (unitless)\nlongitude (Source_lon, degrees_east)\nsource_lat (degrees_north)\nA_Acer (Symbiodinium cells per coral cell)\nD_Acer (Durusdinium cells per coral cell)\ndate_CBASS (unitless)\nCBASS_ed50 (degrees Celsius)\n https://erddap.bco-dmo.org/erddap/info/bcodmo_dataset_920653_v1/index.htmlTable https://www.bco-dmo.org/dataset/920653 (external link) https://erddap.bco-dmo.org/erddap/rss/bcodmo_dataset_920653_v1.rss https://erddap.bco-dmo.org/erddap/subscriptions/add.html?datasetID=bcodmo_dataset_920653_v1&showErrors=false&email= BCO-DMO bcodmo_dataset_920653_v1

See Related Dataset \"Benthic cover\" for more data from this study.\n\nStudy abstract:\n\nIncreasingly frequent marine heatwaves are devastating coral reefs. Corals that survive these extreme events must rapidly recover if they are to withstand subsequent events, and long-term survival in the face of rising ocean temperatures may hinge on recovery capacity and acclimatory gains in heat tolerance over an individual's lifespan. To better understand coral recovery trajectories in the face of successive marine heatwaves, we monitored the responses of bleaching-susceptible and bleaching-resistant individuals of two dominant coral species in Hawaiʻi, Montipora capitata and Porites compressa, over a decade that included three marine heatwaves.\n\ncdm_data_type = Other\nVARIABLES:\nColonyID (unitless)\nSpecies (units)\nBleach (unitless)\nDate (unitless)\nScore (units)\nPhenotype\nMortality (percent  (%))\n https://erddap.bco-dmo.org/erddap/info/bcodmo_dataset_897415_v1/index.htmlTable https://www.bco-dmo.org/dataset/897415 (external link) https://erddap.bco-dmo.org/erddap/rss/bcodmo_dataset_897415_v1.rss https://erddap.bco-dmo.org/erddap/subscriptions/add.html?datasetID=bcodmo_dataset_897415_v1&showErrors=false&email= BCO-DMO bcodmo_dataset_897415_v1

However, there is a need to better understand which thermal regimes maximize coral stress hardening. Here, standardized thermal stress assays were used to determine the relative thermal tolerance of three divergent genera of corals (Acropora, Pocillopora, Porites) originating from six reef sites representing an increasing gradient of annual mean diel temperature fluctuations of 1–3°C day-1. Bleaching severity and dark-acclimated photochemical yield (i.e., Fv/Fm) were quantified following exposure to five temperature treatments ranging from 23.0 to 36.3°C (see Related Datasets for temperature data). This data set contains photochemical yield and color score data used to determine effective dose 50 (ED50, thermal tolerance). It also includes images used for analysis of coral color, a proxy for bleaching severity.\n\ncdm_data_type = Other\nVARIABLES:\nSite_Code (unitless)\nSite_Name (unitless)\nlatitude (degrees_north)\nlongitude (degrees_east)\nGenus (unitless)\nColonyID (unitless)\nTreatment_nonnum (unitless)\nTreatment (unitless)\nReplicate (unitless)\nTemperature (degrees Celsius (degC))\nF0 (unitless)\nFm (unitless)\nY (unitless)\nLabel (unitless)\nColor_type (unitless)\nColor (unitless)\nName (unitless)\n...
