They found that coral reefs could reduce the impact of waves by up to 95 percent! Because of higher ocean acidity (酸性) and temperature, coral reefs are disappearing and dying out. At the same time, climate change puts weakened coral reefs under more stress. The University of Miami ...
Because of higher ocean acidity (酸性) and temperature, coral reefs are disappearing and dying out. At the same time, climate change puts weakened coral reefs under more stress. The University of Miami researchers are testing to plant new coral reefs while others are actively looking for effecti...
According to Ocean Conservancy conservation biologist Alexis Baldera, among the adverse effects of the spill are fewer nesting sea turtles, dying deep-sea coral reefs, and the death of dolphins. Also cited is the Natural Resource Damage Assessment project being led by the U.S. National Oceanic ...
A warmer planet doesn’t just raise temperatures. From wildfires to flooding to coral bleaching, here are some real-world implications.
As their habitats are threatened, the polar bears have become less genetically diverse because of their increasing isolation, which increases the risk of their dying out. Grizzly bears are also heading north as higher temperatures allow them to explore more Arctic habitat. The result? The “...
Today, marine life is facing constant threats and dangers and is slowly dying. Some of the threats include oil spills, global warming, overfishing, plastic pollution, noise pollution, ocean dumping and many others. Here are some facts proving that marine
[32] These unwanted fish and animals are then thrown back into the water, most of them already dead or dying.Trawling is also damaging to the ocean floor. The weights that keep the net open can weigh several tons, and the bottom of the net is a thick metal cable, studded with heavy ...
We love exploring the depths of the ocean below by means of snorkeling and scuba diving to see the coral reefs and schools of fish. Now, imagine if, below the water, there was no more beauty to behold. Everything would be still and lifeless with overgrown algae surrounded by dead fish ...
We assessed the state of knowledge regarding the effects of large-scale pollution with neonicotinoid insecticides and fipronil on non-target invertebrate species of terrestrial, freshwater and marine environments. A large section of the assessment is dedicated to the state of knowledge on sublethal effec...
