So much great work!

Increased resilience and a regime shift reversal through repeat mass coral bleaching Assessing coral reefs across the inner Seychelles islands, using a 28-year dataset, we document faster coral recovery from the 2016 than the 1998 marine heatwave events. Further, a reef that had regi....

Still hope for coral reefs. Using 28-years of data in Seychelles, we find reefs recovering 4-5 years faster from the 2016 bleaching event, than they did after 1998. Also, a reef that had regime-shifted to macroalgae for over 15 years, is recovering to coral.

New report reveals that targets to save 30% of the ocean by 2030 aren’t being met Since 2022, the network of global ocean-protected areas has grown by only 0.5% to 8.3%.

World leaders are meeting now in Colombia for #COP16

They will discuss the 30x30 goal to protect 30% of the world’s land and ocean by 2030

Progress so far has been too slow - as outlined by @profcallum.bsky.social in this article in @uk.theconversation.com #ExeteratCOP16 @uniofexeter.bsky.social

First approval for controversial seabed mining worries scientists Researchers say the Norwegian government ignored warnings of potential ecosystem harm. Researchers say the Norwegian government ignored warnings of potential ecosystem harm.
