Extinction Risks for Coral Reefs

The coral reef ecosystem of the world is threatened by human disturbance and climate change. As a result, many scientists began to study the ecosystem of coral reefs worldwide to better understand the causes and effects of coral reef damage. Hodgson (1999) and Carpenter et al. (2008), they know the ongoing degradation of the worldwide coral reef ecosystem. Hodgson's research involves investigating global coral reef ecosystems to ascertain whether human behavior will affect so-called natural coral reef health.

A quarter of the world's coral reefs have disappeared and one-third of the coral reefs (the underlying species of this ecosystem) are on the verge of extinction. Although coral reefs have deteriorated for several reasons, global warming is the cause of extensive death in a few weeks. Today I saw this around the Great Barrier Reef. When coral reefs began to melt in more acidic water, it is possible that large coral reef corals disappeared. The frequency of heat waves predicted by the climate change model will increase markedly in the near future and lead to higher coral mortality. Large-scale coral mortality may last until 2017, and the third worldwide coral bleaching phenomenon in the world was announced last October.

I studied coral reef protection at the graduate school. At the time, coral decline was a new phenomenon, no one thought that coral reefs will be extinct in the coming decades. Most of the Florida coral reefs are given the status of state parks and national marine protected areas, but in recent years they are rapidly dead and you can see almost it happens. Rather than reducing carbon emissions, develop strategies to cope with the effects of climate such as sea level rise, erosion, floods, seawater invasion, the occurrence of insect-borne diseases, extreme heat, and head to Florida sandy beaches I filled it. As everyone knows, Scott prohibits state employees from using the term climate change. This is irresponsible everywhere, but at the forefront of the climate war like Florida, it is at the boundary of crime.

Hurricane Matthew is an ugly example of what happens when a climate denial and extreme weather collide.
