Corals grow within very narrow limits of temperature, and so are susceptible to global warming. They provide livelihoods for millions of people in tropical areas, and are under serious threat from a variety of environmental and climate extremes.
Understanding climate change is not new; it has firm roots in 18th and 19th century science. Corals grow within very narrow limits of temperature, and so are susceptible to global warming. They provide livelihoods for millions of people in tropical areas, and are under serious threat from a variety of environmental and climate extremes. This talk will review the latest research on how climate influences corals, and how science can lead to conservation actions, with benefits for the human populations reliant on the reefs for their survival.
