How do coral reefs benefit marine life?Coral Reefs:Coral reefs have been around for millions of years, but they have been declining since the 1980s due to human activities such as pollution, overfishing, climate change, and coastal development....

Climate change and the performance of larval coral reef fishes: the interaction between temperature and food availability. Climate-change models predict that tropical ocean temperatures will increase by 2-3°C this century and affect plankton communities that are food for marin... Ian,M,McLeod,.....
How does radiation affect marine life? Marine Life Marine life is also known as ocean life. There are various forms of marine life, such as benthos and plankton. Marine life plays an essential role in preventing erosion, absorption of carbon dioxide and regulation of the climate. ...
a specific example of a natural predator that can cause a lot of damage to coral reefs—the Crown of Thorns, or CoT starfish.The Cot starfish is found on coral reefs in the tropical Pacific Ocean and it eats coral.Now, in small numbers, the starfish don't affect coral reefs dramatically...
“I’d like to see a rethinking of how we define reefs that are worth protecting.”— Andréa Grottoli“What mattered was the size of the corals’ energy reserves, especially stored lipids,” explains Grottoli. “When we starve, our bodies metabolize fat, and other living things do the sa...
How does methane affect ocean acidification? Methane: Methane is the smallest of the alkane chemical compounds. It has a single carbon atom which is bonded to four hydrogen atoms. Alkanes are fully saturated hydrocarbons. At room temperature and pressure, methane is a gas. ...
How do ocean currents affect climate? The global system of ocean currents helps to regulate climate by moving warm water around the globe. Notably, life in much of the Northern hemisphere is possible because theGulf streambrings warm water from the tropics polewards. (Fun Fact: A collapse in...
How Do Reefs Form? As the polyps live, reproduce, and die, they leave their skeletons behind. A coral reef is built up by layers of these skeletons covered by living polyps. The polyps reproduce either through fragmentation (when a piece breaks off and new polyps form) or sexual reproductio...
