Increasingly Frequent Marine Heatwaves Can Kill Coral Almost Instantly, Study Finds
An anonymous reader quotes a report from the BBC: Increasingly frequent marine heatwaves can lead to the almost instant death of corals, scientists working on the Great Barrier Reef have found. These episodes of unusually high water temperatures are -- like heatwaves on land -- associated with climate change. Scientists studying coral after a heat event discovered that extreme temperature rises decayed reefs much more rapidly than previously thought. The study revealed that corals became up to 15% weaker after an extreme heat event, causing some fragments to actually break off from the reef. The study has been published in the journal Current Biology.Read more of this story at Slashdot.
