Coral bleaching

New research found that providing shade to integral reefs such as the Great Barrier Reef may reduce bleaching drastically.

Sea-surface temperatures around the Florida Keys have hit a record high, devastating the surrounding coral reefs.

Ocean temperatures have been at an all-time high since mid-March, thought to be a result of climate change-driven temperature increases and El Nino.

The NOAA scientists found the otherworldly blob 1,400 feet below the surface of the Caribbean Sea.

Researchers have discovered remains of a massive coral reef in a desert plain they previously thought was featureless.

Labor Party leader Anthony Albanese will take over the nation's government after campaigning to tackle climate change and protect Australia's natural habitat.

The new coral reef, measuring 1,600 feet in height, is the first to be discovered in more than 120 years.

"We are beginning to transition and go through the extinction," study author David Gruber said. "Who comes out the other side is up for grabs."

Key West banned sunblock and sunscreens which contain certain chemicals in an attempt at saving the area's coral reefs. But the state lawmakers may overturn the ban on the grounds that human health is a more important matter.

It is clear that despite management efforts at local, regional and national levels, a significant number of threats to the reef are getting worse.

"I think they'll give me a detention but it'll be worth it."

"Global warming is happening. As a society, we need to understand how species and ecosystems will respond to such change," said study author Lewis Jones.

Marine heatwaves have caused coral bleaching in one of the most isolated ecosystems in the world.

Coral reef resiliency after back-to-back marine heat waves has given scientists some hope.

A new study indicates that coral is fighting for its own survival in the face of climate change.

Rising water temperatures are killing corals—but researchers think we can stop the die-off.

"There's just no time for these systems to recover."

Scientists discover special reefs that appear to be key to regenerating the system and may protect it from damage in the future.

Unprecedented amounts of coral reef bleaching destroyed the coasts of Hawaii, and it will probably keep getting worse.

Greenpeace said listing the World Heritage Site as endangered would have forced the Australian government to act on climate change.

Researchers found a lagoon system in New Caledonia with corals that can survive in hot, acidic and low-oxygen waters.

Scientists warn it may be too late to save the Great Barrier Reef, which experienced the worst dying off of coral ever recorded in 2016.

The bleaching streak is unprecedented.
