Associate Professor - Department of Earth Sciences, University of Oxford. I'm interested in marine dispersal and the oceanic forcing of coral reef systems, past, present, and future. nvogtvincent.co.uk

Simulation of changes in community composition under future climate change in SSP2-4.5, showing a shift in community composition towards stress-tolerant corals, followed by a strong and long-term rebound towards branching corals. This animation is a bit complicated so please read the paper!

Animation showing simulated coral larvae from a reef in NW Madagascar from Vogt-Vincent et al. 2023.
Graph showing changes in community composition towards massive, stress-tolerant corals over the next few decades, followed by a strong rebound to fast-growing branching corals beyond ~2080.
Graph showing different trajectories for future coral cover under SSP1-2.6 (~30% decline), SSP2-4.5 (~70% decine), and SSP5-8.5 (~99% decline).
Simulation of future coral reef dynamics under SSP2-4.5 (one of an ensemble of 12) from the paper, showing a rapid decline in coral cover from the early 21st century onwards, peaking in the last 21st century and undergoing a very slow centennial-scale recovery.
