Coral reefs, the rainforests of the sea
Original: From Global to Local: Coral reefs: ‘rainforests of the sea’
A news feature examines coral reefs, often called the 'rainforests of the sea' for the extraordinary biodiversity they support. The piece looks at how these ecosystems, which cover a tiny fraction of the ocean floor, sustain marine life and coastal communities, and connects global pressures such as warming waters to local impacts on reef health.
Why now: Continued concern over coral bleaching and ocean warming keeps reef conservation in the news.
