Really proud of Dr Amelia Wenger for leading a great team to pull together these fantastic new resources for assessing and monitoring coastal pollution.

At the onset of a frightening bleaching event, we presented baselines and workplan for the #BahariNiUrithi project to support EbA in Pemba. Coral cover is high (>20%) but fish biomass is low (<300kg/ha). The good news? >70% of communities support the new MCA!

Today at the Economist #OceanSummit , WCS and partners from all over the world are launching new guidance to help scientists, governments, and businesses assess, monitor, and manage coastal pollution.

In deep water and in the shallows, corals cooked by last year’s extreme heat are not doing great.

Devastating pictures shared by our collaborators in the Northern Territory of mass coral bleaching. Already a lot of mortality observed. Most of these reefs are undocumented, meaning we may never know the extent of the loss 💔 FutureReefsLab #Australia #Coral pic credit A.Doheny
New in Royal Society Publishing – Evidence for managing herbivores for reef resilience – We used >20k surveys from #HIMARC Hawai‘i Monitoring and Reporting Collaborative to identify that below 80% of unfished biomass, benthic resilience is compromised
