A report backed by the United Nations has documented the threat that coral reefs are undergoing known as 'cloral bleaching.' Researchers at California Academy of Sciences are hoping that what they call 'coral spawning' can be the solution.
A report backed by the United Nations has documented the threat that coral reefs are undergoing known as "cloral bleaching." Researchers at San Francisco's California Academy of Sciences are hoping that what they call "coral spawning" can be the solution.As a researcher with the California Academy of Sciences in San Francisco, Ale Hernandez, Ph.D., has explored coral reefs around the world.
The bleaching is so significant that a report backed by the United Nations is recommending the Barrier Reef be added to a list of world heritage sites designated as being in danger. "And it just continues to amaze me, this process that happens once a year, even when taken out of the ocean," says Rebecca Albright, Ph.D., who oversees the spawning program.
