Corals depend on algae to survive in an era when the world’s marine habitat is being endangered by worsening climatic conditions.
Bleaching and climate change because of the depth. because the bleaching is really a reaction to a high temperature, but also to high light, because this coral metre is further down, you don't have the stress from the light and density. evenif from the light and density. even if they have been stressed, it was not enough to induce bleaching or coral mortality. and really when you dive underneath you cannot find any mortality of coral. so that really means that even in french lanitza, bacchin 2019, there was a massive bleaching event, we don't find any sign of mortality —— bacchin 2019. one...

Lifeless brown. look at the before and after contrast of coral gone from healthy to bleached. dr. nancy noten, a coral reef biologist with the smithsonian museum of natural history says the coral is basically suffering from heat stroke. >> it's happening with climate change is the baseline temperature is getting warmer and warmer. so, any little increase in temperature caused by local weather conditions than adds on top of the global warming and then kicks off this bleaching event. the global warming is caused by people and is providing the conditions that make bleaching happen. >> reporter: t...
That relationship to become toxic. >> reporter: his team released footage of barren expansions of coral bleached bone white and in some cases turning a drab lifeless brown. look at the before and after contrast of coral gone from healthy to bleached. dr. nancy knowlton, a coral reeve -- reef says it's suffering from heat stroke. >> what's happening is the baseline temperature is getting warmer and warmer and any increase in temperature caused by local weather conditions and adds on top of the global warming and kicks off this bleaching event so the global warming is cautioned by people, and it...
