Coral Reefs

Coral reefs are facing a range of threats, both human-made and environmental. These include warming ocean temperatures, bleaching events, and diseases brought on by climate change and increased human activity. As a result, coral reefs are experiencing degradation, loss of biodiversity, and a decline in the ecosystem benefits they provide. To address these issues, we first need to identify and prioritize the greatest stressors impacting coral reef communities, such as warming sea surface temperatures, bleaching events, and diseases. This alert is designed to inform you about the current threats to these natural ecosystems and provide feasible and realistic solutions.
