The scale on which the various drivers of coral reef degradation act is important in terms of what restoration might achieve (see section 1.5). Large scale disturbances such as ENSO-induced mass coral mortality, tropical cyclones (hurricanes, typhoons), and Crown-of-thorns starfish (Acanthaster planci) outbreaks can cause damage at scales which are ///several orders of magnitude larger/// than those at which restoration can be attempted.
