English term or phrase: stressors
In the context of restoration it is important to distinguish between acute and chronic disturbances. Restoration interventions are unlikely to succeed on reefs that are chronically stressed. Management measures must be undertaken first to ameliorate or remove the chronic anthropogenic ///stressors/// (e.g., sediment run-off, sewage, overfishing).

Explanation:
Must confess that I'm no expert but googling words stress/stresseur/corail/perturbation etc...one finds words such as "stress" and "stresseur" being used in scientific writings.

In the second reference, the author preferred "facteur de stress".
