Great Barrier Reef mass bleaching threatens world heritage icon

Extract :

As the world media focuses almost exclusively on the COVID-19 crisis, Australia’s Great Barrier Reef has experienced a catastrophic mass bleaching event for the third time in five years. Warmer summer sea temperatures are being blamed for the devastating effects on huge areas of coral.

Severe bleaching has been found on reefs closer to the shore. Although bleached corals do not necessarily die, they can be killed if temperatures remain high. Bleaching also has negative effects on habitats for other sea life.
Alors que les médias se concentrent exclusivement sur la crise du Covid-19, la Grande Barrière de corail australienne a connu un blanchissement corallien catastrophique pour la troisième fois en cinq ans. L’augmentation de la température de la mer pendant l’été est la cause principale de ces effets dévastateurs sur les vastes zones de corail.

Un blanchissement important [en] a été retrouvé sur des récifs plus proches du rivage. Bien que les coraux blanchis ne meurent pas systématiquement, le risque augmente si les températures restent élevées. Le blanchissement a également des effets négatifs sur les habitats des autres espèces marines.
