☆ Florida scientists are giving coral IVF treatments to help bolster dying reef
  + stars: | 2023-11-19 | by ( Hannah Getahun | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +3 min
Coral reefs are experiencing mass bleaching and die-off events due to climate change. Following a record marine heat wave this past summer, Florida's iconic coral reef experienced massive bleaching and die-offs. The water is also injected with nitrogen and phosphorus — chemical pollutants most often associated with fertilizer runoff that could exacerbate coral bleaching . Another method that the team is looking at is targeting the reproduction of coral to help boost their populations. For years, scientists have been looking for ways to make coral resistant to heat as climate change results in more marine heatwaves and healthy coral reefs continue to decline.

☆ Conditions are ripe for a global coral bleaching event: ‘Florida is just the tip of the iceberg’

NOAA, coral reefs, Florida Keys, coral reefs, coral bleaching, climate change, warm oceansCoral reefs off the coast of Florida are being hit by a mass bleaching event due to record high ocean temperatures, and early indications suggest a global mass bleaching event could be underway. The Sentinel climate research and monitoring site in the Florida Keys has recorded 100% coral bleaching since late July. There have been eight mass coral bleaching events that have impacted the entire Florida Keys since 1987, Manzello said. "We're talking about thousands upon thousands of miles of coral reefs undergoing severe bleaching heat stress," Manzello said. "Now, it's still way too early to predict whether or not there will be a global bleaching event, but if we compare what is happening right now to what happened in the beginning of the past global bleaching event, things are worse now than they were in 2014 to 2017."

☆ Hurricanes of Data: The Tiny Craft Mapping Superstorms at Sea
  + stars: | 2023-05-09 | by ( Porter Fox | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +35 min
The Tiny Craft Mapping Superstorms at Sea Shortly after dawn on Sept. 30, 2021, Richard Jenkins watched a Category 4 hurricane overrun his life’s work. That August, a sister ship, SD 1031, successfully entered Tropical Storm Henri, but only in its early stages. Hurricane research, modeling and forecasting requires many terabytes of data for every square mile the storm passes through, including vitally important sea-level data from inside a storm. The next day, the depression was upgraded to a tropical storm and officially given the name Sam. And four months later, Tropical Storm Megi killed more than 150, wiped out several villages with landslides and displaced more than a million people.
