Domain-specific¶
- Coral Bleaching
- If the thermal anomaly persists — measured operationally in degree-heating-weeks, the accumulated product of temperature excess over duration — recovery fails and the host starves to death, usually within six to ten weeks of initial bleaching
This sourceThe NOAA Coral Reef Watch degree-heating-week product, defined as accumulated thermal-stress intensity (HotSpots of at least 1 degree Celsius) integrated over the most recent 12 weeks, as an operational measure of cumulative heat exposure.

“CRW’s DHW product accumulates prolonged periods of thermal stress and has been shown to be more predictive of mass coral bleaching”
- If the thermal anomaly persists — measured operationally in degree-heating-weeks, the accumulated product of temperature excess over duration — recovery fails and the host starves to death, usually within six to ten weeks of initial bleaching
- Marine Heatwave
- The DHW value drives a published bleaching-alert ladder: accumulation past roughly 4 °C-weeks flags significant bleaching becoming likely, and past roughly 8 °C-weeks flags risk of widespread bleaching and mortality

Verification¶
Does it exist? Not checked yet. This work's DOI is recorded above but has not been resolved against an external catalogue, so nothing here confirms the work exists.
Does it back the claim? Read against the text for 2 of 2 citations: 1 supported, 1 supported in part. Each verdict is shown under its citation below, with what in the work backs the sentence.
Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
