2024 Great Barrier Reef widespread bleaching event unfolding. Very high (60-90% corals cover) and extreme (>90% coral cover) prevalence of coral bleaching is clearly visible from aerial surveys on a third of the surveyed reefs, across all 3 regions of the Great Barrier Reef.

New study combines data from the Crown-of-thorns Starfish (COTS) Control Program + our Long-Term Monitoring Program (LTMP) to reveal benefits to coral cover when targeted culling of starfish occurs. LTMP have monitored COTS & coral cover for decades. 🔗bit.ly/3weddOU

How do we know where to find suitable substrate where corals may already exist or could settle? This is essential for coral restoration. Our new paper shows we can predict this using Sentinel 2 remote sensing data combined with field surveys: doi.org/10.1016/j.rse.…
