In-water monitoring shows hard coral cover across the Great Barrier Reef remains at similar levels to that recorded in 2022, with small decreases in the Northern, Central and Southern regions.

Although the Great Barrier Reef survived sea level rise roughly 11,000 years ago, the world was very different back then. Coral reefs faced less stress from human impacts. And ocean temperatures ...

The growth of coral in the Great Barrier Reef has slowed to the most sluggish rate in at least 400 years and signs point to manmade greenhouse gas emissions as the culprit, according to a new study.

Coral growth since 1990 in Australia's Great Barrier Reef has fallen to its lowest rate for 400 years, in a troubling sign for the world's oceans, researchers said on Thursday.

Australia's Great Barrier Reef has been hit by a major coral bleaching event, with the results consistent with patterns of heat stress that have built up over summer at the biologically diverse ...

It draws from a geological time capsule of fossil reef cores, extracted from the seabed under the Great Barrier Reef. The findings suggest rapid sea level rise in isolation did not spell the end ...
