The study, by Mote Marine Laboratory, connects increased harmful algae blooms with the long-term acidification of Florida’s ...
ocean acidification, and human-induced disturbances. "Understanding how reefs have responded to past sea-level changes helps us predict their future resilience and informs conservation strategies ...
A study found a 3,000-year coral reef growth standstill in the Gulf of Eilat. Tectonic shifts and sea-level changes caused ...
Scientists have developed a novel tool designed to protect and conserve coral reefs by providing them with an abundance of feeding opportunities.

By studying coral samples from the Gulf of Eilat/Aqaba, researchers found that reef growth stopped for about 3,400 years ...
Coral reefs support fisheries, protect coastal communities, and sustain tourism worldwide. However, rising ocean temperatures and acidification from the climate crisis threaten these ecosystems.
Coral reefs trap microplastics due to their mucus. Researchers confirmed that coral mucus acts as an adhesive.
Coral reef ecosystems are generally high in biodiversity, most often found in shallow tropical seas, and are threatened by factors including ocean acidification, global warming and sea level rise.
