Short summary
We measured how coral communities around Hong Kong produce and use organic matter across different seasons and environments. Even where coral cover was high, communities often used more than they produced, especially under variable wet-season conditions. These findings show how corals can persist in challenging coastal waters and help us understand how coral communities may respond to future climate change and coastal development.
