Our oceans are warming around the world, and we are beginning to adapt to and prepare for this change in our climate. Extreme warm ocean temperatures can have profound effects on marine ecosystems, weather patterns, and economic activities. Read more: climate.gov/news-features/…

Check out this podcast with Coral Reef Watch 's director, Derek Manzello, on the latest global bleaching event - and why we need to work together #ForCoral!

Using data from NOAA's JPSS satellites, a map by Coral Reef Watch indicates significant bleaching at Alert Levels 1 to 3 over the Indian Ocean as of June 9, 2024. This critical insight helps monitor marine health. #NationalOceanMonth

El Niño is officially OVER according to NWS Climate Prediction Center and we are in neutral conditions while we wait for La Niña to develop. In this week's ENSO Blog our experts discuss if a strong El Niño portends a strong La Niña... Read all the details: climate.gov/news-features/…

Happy 30th anniversary to ICRI Secretariat! The International Coral Reef Initiative kicked off in 1994 and has been a critical champion #ForCoral ever since! 🪸 💪 icri30.org #ICRI30

We collaborated with international partners during a week-long workshop on ReefCloud, an online, user-friendly platform developed by Australian Institute of Marine Science that uses artificial intelligence (AI) to assist with monitoring coral reefs. #TheMoreYouKnow #ReefCloud noaa.gov/ai

Good news and some potential relief for corals in Florida! Tropical Storm Alberto has pushed sea surface temperatures down to a Bleaching Watch. Coral Reef Watch #CoralReefs #SST coralreefwatch.noaa.gov/data_current/5…

The summer is hot, and so are water temperatures 🌡️ Florida is hanging in there, but be aware of increasing temperatures elsewhere in the Caribbean. Please send your observations of the presence AND absence of coral bleaching to Coral Reef Watch ! coralreefwatch.noaa.gov/satellite/rese…

A new study suggests a series of Gulf of Mexico reefs are more resilient to warmer oceans as they are exposed to a wider range of temperatures brought on by a physical movement of seawater called “eddies.” climate.gov/news-features/…

The global climate summary for June is out and June 2024 was the warmest June on record for the globe in NOAA's 175-year record. It was also the 13th month in a row of record-hot temperatures, tying the previous record. More: climate.gov/news-features/…

Our National Coral Reef Monitoring Program folks are hard at work #ForCorals! #NCRMP

@NOAASoutheastFisheryScienceCenter and Sustainable Oceans and Reefs are using bioballs at Conch Reef and Elbow Reef to collect sea urchin larvae to help @Mission: IconicReefs understand how to introduce these coral stewards back onto the reef.

July 2024 was not only record-warm globally but also marked the 14th consecutive month of record global heat, which in of itself is a new record. Read more about July's monthly climate summary: climate.gov/news-features/… NOAA NCEI NOAA

If you’re a regular reader of our ENSO blog, then you know that scientists have been carefully observing how the Pacific is changing from El Niño to La Niña conditions by late summer. But as it happens, something similar might be cooking in the Atlantic. climate.gov/news-features/…

About 94% of the ocean surface experienced at least 1 marine heatwave in 2023 (defined as sea-surface temperatures in the warmest 10% of all recorded data in a particular location on that day for at least 5 days). #StateoftheClimate2023 More highlights: climate.gov/sotc2023

During ICRI Secretariat's General Meeting this week, we facilitated a session on the monitoring and management response to the fourth global bleaching event. icriforum.org/bleaching-hub/ Coral Reef Watch ONU Medio Ambiente América Latina y el Caribe/UNEP UN Environment Programme CORDIO East Africa Maldives Marine Research Institute Australian Institute of Marine Science #CoralReefs #ForCoral

The mass bleaching of coral reefs around the world is now the most extensive on record. A staggering 77% of the world’s corals have been affected, says the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration reut.rs/4eOgjdl

Coral Reef Watch is keeping their eye on the western Pacific, where heat stress is still building. Check out the latest information from their virtual station on Guam. coralreefwatch.noaa.gov/product/vs/map…

Join us TOMORROW at 12 pm ET for our next #NEDTalk! Dr. Derek P. Manzello will discuss NOAA's Coral Reef Watch program and the global coral bleaching event that began in February 2023. Register to listen and ask questions live: nesdis.noaa.gov/events/nedtalk…
