New research by my colleagues and I offers a glimmer of hope: Coral reefs we studied in the Pacific appear to have increased their resistance to high ocean temperatures. But this can only improve ...

Coral reefs in one part of the Pacific Ocean have likely adjusted to higher ocean temperatures which could reduce future bleaching impacts of climate change, new research reveals. A Newcastle ...

Breakthroughs, discoveries, and DIY tips sent six days a week. Terms of Service and Privacy Policy. Ocean temperatures are surging worldwide largely due to human-made ...

With coral reefs in decline around the globe, scientists weren’t sure what they’d find during a 2½-year research cruise to survey the very tiniest organisms living among the fish and corals of Pacific ...

Corals of the South Pacific are the most varied and perhaps the most beautiful in the world. Coral reef species found in the Caribbean Sea are less colorful and less varied than those of Palau; ...

Unprecedented ocean temperatures are triggering mass coral bleaching events across the world. This year, the world’s third-largest barrier reef, in Florida, is already being hit hard. New research by ...

New study documents a severe coral bleaching event occurring in a deep coral reef that resulted in high rates of coral mortality. Unlike many bleaching events, this was driven by the presence of ...

A new study reveals that more than half of the world's coral reefs are bleached because of ocean warming, with 15% experiencing significant mortality.

El Nino has officially arrived. The trade winds that blow across the Earth weaken during El Niño, causing changes in global weather, including extreme heat in the Pacific. With El Nino’s recent ...
