“Satellite data has revolutionized our ability to observe heat stress unfolding in the ocean. Now that field scientists are making comparable underwater observations, we are greatly improving our understanding of the impacts of climate change”. Maina ow.ly/5sJH50BKblc

WCS has been underwater studying #coral #reefs for over 70 years. That work would not be possible without our many award-winning marine scientists from around the world. We're lucky to partner with, and learn from, these researchers every day.
