Quick Glance: Global Coral Bleaching Event After Extreme Heat
  • US climate agency NOAA declares a concerning global coral bleaching event for the fourth time in history after a year of extreme ocean heat.

  • Impacts of coral bleaching span oceans worldwide, with sea surface temperatures at record levels.

  • Corals under extreme heat stress can recover, but otherwise, the reef requires several years to regenerate.

  • Despite losses, some reefs show signs of color, offering hope for potential recovery, while scientists caution about the escalating impacts.

Quick Glance: Record High Temperatures Trigger Fresh Great Barrier Reef Bleaching
  • Vast portions of the Great Barrier Reef have undergone bleaching due to above-average ocean temperatures, with concerns of worsening conditions.

  • During regular surveys, scientists from the James Cook University's Centre for Tropical Water and Aquatic Ecosystem Research, led by Dr. Maya Srinivasan, identified moderate to severe bleaching around the Keppel Islands.

  • Coral bleaching occurs when underwater temperatures exceed the long-term average by more than 1 degree, leading to heat stress.

  • Despite the observed bleaching, Srinivasan remains optimistic about the potential recovery of coral reefs given sufficient time between impacts.
