Parts of the Great Barrer Reef have suffered the highest coral mortality on record, Australian researchers say, and they fear the rest of it has suffered a similar fate.

Scientists found the Great Barrier Reef experienced its highest ocean temperatures than any recorded year since 1618.

Heat Raises Fears of ‘Demise’ for Great Barrier Reef Within a Generation A new study found that temperatures in the Coral Sea have reached their highest levels in at least four centuries.

New research led by the University of Sydney adds to our understanding of how rapidly rising sea levels due to climate change foreshadow the end of the Great Barrier Reef as we know it.

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.
