Coral Reefs Shift Toward Poles as Oceans Warm
Original: Outrunning Global Warming? Coral Reefs Move Toward Poles
New reporting highlights that coral reefs are increasingly being found at higher latitudes, apparently shifting toward the poles as ocean temperatures rise. The development is framed as a possible sign of marine ecosystems relocating in response to global warming rather than simply disappearing. It adds to ongoing scientific debate about whether reefs can 'outrun' climate change, and what such poleward migration means for tropical reefs and the communities that depend on them.
Why now: Rising concern about climate change impacts on oceans is keeping coral reef responses in the news
