Coral Gardeners

Corals can have different responses to ocean heat waves: some remain healthy, some are bleaching, and some are glowing in striking colours from blue to yellow and purple.   Under stress, corals can produce special fluorescent pigments that act as a sunscreen layer in an attempt to protect themselves for survival. These glowing colours are also believed to be neon signs that encourage the algae to return to the bleached corals so they can recover. Corals are for sure fascinating creatures.   Take a look for yourself by swiping.   #CoralGardeners #SaveTheReef #CoralBleaching #Glowing #Corals #CoralBleaching #ClimateCrisis #Ocean #OceanWarming #WarmingClimate

Before/After: Bleached Corals. Coral bleaching is a natural phenomenon that can occur when the ocean waters are rising, which has been steadily happening because of climate change.  An increase of only 1 degree Celsius above their thermal resilience can stress the corals and cause them to expel the algae living in their tissues, stripping them of their vibrant colours as well as their main source of food.   Bleached corals are not dead—they can recover if their environment improves. Coral reefs need all the help they can get.

Our CG Labs have rolled out new features to our iOS ReefAPP to allow gardeners to collect data more easily and consistently during the bleaching period across all our branches. With this data, we can better understand coral responses to climate and adapt our methods to build reef resilience for the future.

We teamed up with Earthrise Studio and Avatar Actress Bailey Bass this World Ocean Month to raise awareness about the climate crisis unfolding under the surface. 🪸🌎 Learn more about the coral bleaching phenomena and how we can help preserve corals back from the brink of collapse. We are calling on global action to bring the necessary attention and funding to coral conservation.

Corals are in crisis, with the worst mass bleaching event on record happening worldwide. In the last year alone, more than 60% of the planet’s coral reefs have experienced enough heat stress to cause bleaching. There is still hope: we can help nature fight back.
