A study by the Wildlife Conservation Society and Macquarie University suggests one-third of coral reefs could be climate-resilient by 2050.
The model used 45,000 field observations and 42 environmental factors to predict reef health under high emission scenarios.
Resilient reefs are located across 71 countries, with significant concentrations in the Bahamas, Cuba, Australia, Indonesia, and the Philippines.
