Corals can be heat trained for survival
Listen now
Description
Mass bleaching is happening more often for longer periods of time every year causing more damage than in previous years and it looks as though coral reefs will change in composition unless something is done to help them adapt, but climate change is not a switch that can be turned on and off. Therefore, certain adaptations will need to be taken in for the survival of coral reefs as we know them. In this episode, I am going to tell you about a study that tests whether corals can be trained to tolerate heat.
