A study highlights that an increase in global warming by 2°C could cause the loss of cool areas in the sea known as thermal refugia that protects coral reefs from increasing temperatures.

PARIS (AFP) - Coral reefs that anchor a quarter of marine wildlife and the livelihoods of more than half-a-billion people will most likely be wiped out even if global warming is capped within Paris climate goals, researchers said on Tuesday (Feb 1). . Read more at straitstimes.com.

Limiting global warming to 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels will still be catastrophic for coral reefs, new research suggests. Scientists led by the University of Leeds have discovered that more than 90% of tropical coral reefs will suffer frequent

A two-degree rise in global warming would wipe out cool refuges that protect corals, study finds.

A two-degree rise in global warming would wipe out cool refuges that protect corals, study finds.

Researchers said that the Paris Climate Agreement's climate change efforts "will not be enough to save most coral reefs."

A newly performed alarming study has shown that global warming of 1.5 °C above pre-industrial levels will be catastrophic for nearly all coral reefs. This includes those which are once thought of as refuges.

Once rare marine heat waves have become routine, threatening coral reefs and other sea creatures
