Many coral reef models now capture complex demographic, trait-based or ecosystem dynamics, supporting detailed projections under climate stress. However, their application is often constrained by extensive site-specific data needs, specialised modelling expertise and reliance on proprietary software, limiting accessibility and practical transferability. Here we develop CoralPOP, a morphology-based, size-structured coral population model that uses commonly collected benthic data and a small set o
