As many of you may be aware the ability to answer AGW/CC questions has always been my deal and now I have the truth on coral bleaching.We have cyclones that can be immediately destructive to shallow coral One of the locations mentioned in the new study is in the far northern section, at North Direction Island. The coral reefs around this small, uninhabited steep granite island have been through the eye of some of the most destructive category 4 and 5 cyclones — Ita in 2014 and Nathan in 2015 we had cyclones aggressive enough to do local damage.If you go take pictures a week later its all white and dead but it recovers in what could be called a short time geographically.Its all grown back already.The 2016 bleaching event was a contribution of many factors.The sea levels were lower than usual due to an el nino event and wind patterns that lowered the level around 300mm.The tides and time of year worked together to have extreme low tides in the middle of the day.Direct sunshine on shallow coral caused the zoolanthea to pack their bags and go.Heron Island is naturally rising out of the sea around 4 mm a year.All these events conspired to create localised bleaching.I have just looked at recent footage of divers filming Ribbon reef and it is amazing.All the Porites coral micro atolls are back at Heron island.I am so happy right now duncan61 |

We had that off Florida coast for a while. I don't think it's any one cause, just something that happens occasionally, naturally. The coral's food sources change, sometime do to competition with other sea critters. Coral, specially the young, is also food for some. It was never that the coral was dying, just bleaching. The color doesn't really serve a purpose, or an indicator of reef health. More of a happy-tourist thing, than anything else. |

Some lately, probably afraid of the rioting and looting, the Biden supports have doing most of the year in those states. Hope they aren't figuring on starting that looting and burning crap in Florida. They are in for a big surprise. We don't tolerate it, and will shoot real bullets, both cops and residents. There is going to be some civil unrest Tuesday, or soon after. Trump is most likely to win re-electing, despite all the media misinformation. The coral reefs are actually mostly the skeletal remains of past coral, and is a safe place for young coral to attach and grow. Science isn't about studying and understanding any more. It's about finding 'problems', that need 'fixing'. They don't understand any more, most thing in nature, usually fix themselves, given time, and left alone. Wonder if it was the scientists, that actually did most of the damage, busting of samples, and specimens to study, and preserve. Maybe to sell on Ebay, for saltwater aquariums. Have to fund the research some how... |

I'm pretty sure the water off the Florida coast gets colder that in the winter, but might might have screwed up the British conversion. Not sure why people still use that damn metric crap. Never worried about water temperature in the spring/summer/fall, since warm water is good. Not of fan of swimming in cold water. Still think the bleaching is from UV exposure, do to the eroding of the ozone layer. Suppose that's a good thing, since last time, they claim we were heading into the next great ice age, if we didn't act quickly, and stop all the graffiti painting. |

The waste from the algae is what feeds the coral. Then the CO2 that coral releases helps to feed the algae. As for the next great ice age, it might already be on its way. It could take another 80,000 years or so to get here. If you look at the last 8 ice ages, most had peak warming greater than what we've experienced so far. |

An example is if the middle of the ocean is higher because high and low tides rarely affect both shores of an ocean the same. It's like a buffer for high and low tides. This requires water to travel a shorter distance to affect local tides. |

You doubt I know.In winter the sea temperature in the shallows around Rottnest Island are 17.something and in summer those same areas are in the mid 30s and people go swimming and diving.The same corals are there all year round and how does a few asians catching aquarium fish with cyanide affect the Great barrier reef 7000Kms away or the West coast of Australia |

duncan61 wrote:...I am going down to Trigg beach to look at the coral reef and take a sample and test the PH value... Duncan what do you think of my fundamtental rebuttal to your line of inquiry: Your perception as a human creature: "Hey I'm comfortable so what could be wrong" Or the perfectly rational: "The temperature changes like 10 degrees every night so who cares about one degree" Is contradicted by thousands of years of human experience with plants and animals. What seems to us to be small differences can have a dramatic impact on the type of ecology thriving or failing. The ice age was not an era when everything was frozen solid. It was a shift of about 7C degrees colder (12F), but it had a dramatic impact on the ecology of the Earth. I think the real core argument I have is this: You believe there is a grand conspiracy and fraud being perpetrated. That has certainly happened and is always possible. However there is a motive for that fraud as alleged: AGW pitched as a global crisis to motivate massive changes in society that some conspirators will profit from. So it's reasonable to conclude that actions take prior to AGW as a topic are not part of that conspiracy. Pre 1980: Tyndall, Fourier, Provost, Planck, the Russian Space program in the 70s, physicists, statisticians, climatologists and science and technology as a whole, can be excluded from the conspiracy. Right?
