Coral Reefs - Page 2

Eighteenth century nautical charts reveal coral loss. Centuries-old nautical charts, mapped by long-deceased sailors to avoid shipwrecks, have been used by modern scientists to study loss of coral reefs. A new study compared early British charts to modern coral habitat maps to understand changes to reef environments. Source 9q.

Reefs Coral

Three new species of zoantharians described from coral reefs across the Indo-Pacific. Three new species of zoantharians -- relatives of the better-known hard corals and sea anemones - were discovered in southern Japan. One of them, Antipathozoanthus remengesaui, was named after the current president of Palau, Tommy Remengesau, in honor of his and the nation's support to the authors and marine conservation as a whole. The species can be found widely across the Indo-Pacific. Source 4h.

Coral Reefs History & Civil Business Politics

The window for saving the world's coral reefs is rapidly closing. For the first time, an international team of researchers has measured the escalating rate of coral bleaching at locations throughout the tropics over the past four decades. The study documents a dramatic shortening of the gap between pairs of bleaching events, threatening the future existence of these iconic ecosystems and the livelihoods of many millions of people.

Coral Reefs

Facilitating coral restoration. Global declines of coral reefs -- particularly in the Caribbean -- have spurred efforts to grow corals in underwater nurseries and transplant them to enable recovery. However, current approaches rarely incorporate the key ecological reef processes critical to facilitating restoration and improving the odds of success. In a new paper, scientists advocate for the integration of essential natural processes to exploit dynamic ecological forces and drive recovery of coral reef ecosystems. Source 5r.

Coral Reefs - Page 2

Coral reefs are 50% less able to provide food, jobs, and climate protection than in 1950s, putting millions at risk. The capacity of coral reefs to provide ecosystem services such as food and jobs, relied on by millions of people worldwide, has declined by half since the 1950s, according to a new study. Other findings are equally bleak: the authors found that global coverage of living corals had declined by about half since the 1950s and consequently, the diversity of species had also declined, by more than 60 per cent. Finding targets for recovery and climate adaptation would require a global effort, while also addressing needs at a local level, authors say. Source 1q.
