A coral reef experiences a bleaching event. Evidence of ecosystem change: live coral cover decreases from 60% to 25% in 1 year. Population data: reef fish that shelter in coral decrease from 200 to 90; algae-grazing sea urchins increase from 30 to 70; jellyfish increase from 10 to 35. Which statement is supported by the evidence and includes reasoning linking the change to the population response? Arguments must be evidence-based.
