Coral Reefs is a quarterly peer-reviewed scientific journal dedicated to the study of coral reefs. It was established in 1982 and is published by Springer Science+Business Media on behalf of the International Society for Reef Studies, of which it is the official journal.[1][2] This journal also acts as the International Coral Reef Society.[3] The editor-in-chief is Morgan Pratchett (James Cook University). They have published multiple in-depth articles covering coral reef topics such as conservation of coral reef fishes and different approaches that capture the complexity of coral reefs when examining canopy-forming organisms.[4][5] According to the Journal Citation Reports, the journal has a 2017 impact factor of 3.095.[6] According to Springer the journal has a 2020 impact factor of 3.902, five year impact factor of 3.880, and as of 2021 has 454,744 downloads.[7]

Volume 41, issue 2, April 2022 contains 20 articles covering a range of topics many of which are accessible without an account while still containing large amounts of detailed information. This issue covers topics including a study of coral in the Red Sea and its thermal thresholds which can then be examined to expect negative outcomes of shifting climate.[8] Another article within this issue included an examination of complex coral reefs and how this effects the corallivorous sea star in the Maldives.[9] This issue contains many more articles all of which show a similar level of depth and understanding of the topics being discussed.
