Coral Resilience Measured in the Wake of Bleaching and Disease in St Thomas

Coral recruitment in St. Thomas collapsed by an order of magnitude after back-to-back thermal stress and disease, a stark, measurable decline. This study quantified what we feared: even resilient *Agaricia* spp. recruitment proved acutely sensitive to disturbance. Yet the recovery within roughly two years offers a calibrated signal of hope, and a reminder that monitoring recruitment provides empirical, real-time insight into reef resilience.
