  abstract = {{O}ver the last two decades, coral reefs have experienced dire declines due to intensifying anthropogenic distur-bances and climate change. {D}efining and quantifying coral reef resilience now represents a critical management objective, but there is still little consensus on the approach and the indices to be used. {I}n this study, we develop a multi-factor reef recovery index based on the {T}echnique for {O}rder {P}reference by {S}imilarity to an {I}deal {S}olution ({TOPSIS}) method to assess the vulnerability of several insular coral reefs in the {S}outh {W}estern {I}ndian {O}cean ({SWIO}) from 2016 to 2018. {W}e showed, that in the wake of a regional bleaching event in 2016, the most isolated reefs of {E}uropa, which is characterized by low direct human impact had the highest recovery potential. {O}n the contrary, islands that are more prone to direct human influence (i.e., {L}a {R}eunion and {R}odrigues) displayed the lowest recovery potential.},
