These ecosystems operate at the intersection of ocean chemistry, climate regulation, and biological productivity. However, climate change is now disrupting this balance. Rising sea temperatures trigger coral bleaching by destabilizing the symbiotic relationship between corals and algae. Simultaneously, increased atmospheric CO₂ is driving ocean acidification, reducing the ability of corals to build and maintain their calcium carbonate structures.
The consequences extend beyond biodiversity loss. Coral reefs underpin fisheries, protect coastlines, and support economic systems globally.
Their decline is therefore not an isolated ecological concern, but a signal of systemic stress within ocean environments.
Understanding and addressing climate change requires recognizing the fragility—and importance—of such interconnected systems.
