Coral reefs cover just 1% of the ocean floor but support 25% of marine species, sustain fisheries & tourism, and shield coastlines from storms. This September marks Coral Bleaching Awareness Month. Here's what's at stake and how we can help. go.coral.org/coral-bleaching @coral_org

BREAKING NEWS: Nearly all assessed shallow-water coral reef ecosystems face a high risk of collapse within 50 years, with 96% Critically Endangered.
First global coral reefs assessment under the IUCN Red List of Ecosystems, launched at #COP17Armenia. @redlisteco

The ocean holds the data. Who gets to use it? 🌊
Climate resilience starts with ocean science.
At #IPRD2026, Professional Session 3: Oceanographic Science and Climate Resilience asks how Indo-Pacific nations can turn ocean science into policy and share ocean data. 👇

As a new forecast warns of a potentially devastating coral bleaching event, Nature Seychelles is calling for the urgent establishment of coral biobanks, where living corals representing different species and genetic lineages can be saved and maintained tinyurl.com/cxybfepc

A new study in PLOS ONE by @NatureSey evaluates restored coral reefs by analyzing fish soundscapes.
Comparing manual sound counts with machine learning highlights the value of multi-method assessment tools in measuring reef recovery.🪸

huh. I didn't realize coral reefs are that crucial. tourism impact is one thing, but the storm protection part is scary. thanks for the link

🇸🇨 Seychelles’ seaports keep people, goods, and livelihoods connected.
Through a @cdri_world funded #resilientinfrastructure project implemented by @NatureSey, climate risks and vulnerabilities will be assessed to help shape adaptation strategies for ports across Mahé, Praslin, and La Digue.
⚓ Supporting smarter investments in flood protection, stormwater management, and infrastructure upgrades for ~100,000 people.

Climate-driven marine heatwaves — and the global bleaching events they drive — are the primary cause of the global decline in hard coral cover, now a recurrent and escalating pressure rather than episodic. 👉gcrmn.net/2025-report/ #coralbleachingawarenessmonth

🚢 Seaports in #Seychelles are lifelines for trade, tourism & livelihoods.
A @cdri_world funded #resilientinfrastructure project with @NatureSey is:
📊 Assessing climate risks to seaport infrastructure
🔍 Identifying vulnerabilities in port ops & supply chains
🗺️ Developing risk‑informed adaptation strategies
🤝 Guiding evidence‑based investments
Building climate resilience for island communities 👉 cdri.world/sids/risk-assessm…
Nature Seychelles and the #Seychelles Ports Authority held an inception workshop for the "Risk Assessment and Strategies for Seaport Resilience in Seychelles" project. Funded by @cdri_world this project aims to evaluate climate risks port infrastructure & enhance resilience.
It will be implemented with @nmfindia as the knowledge partner in a collaborative process involving government stakeholders, including the Seychelles Maritime Safety Authority and the Ministries for Transport, Blue Economy, and Environment, and other technical partners. – at Seychelles
Coral Spawning International, Nature Seychelles and Canon are pioneering a new era of coral restoration in the Seychelles, using controlled spawning and selective breeding to build genetically resilient reefs capable of surviving a warming ocean. oceanographicmagazine.com/fe…

Ya hemos perdido cerca del 50% de los arrecifes de coral del planeta. canon.sm/4uZ7s0x

Dos imágenes. El mismo arrecife.
Dos realidades completamente distintas.
La desaparición de los corales no solo afecta a los océanos: afecta a ecosistemas enteros y a millones de personas.
