Diving with schools of orange basslets feels like swimming through a vibrant firework show, while a curious moray eel peeks from its rocky home against a stunning coral reef backdrop. It's pure underwater magic! . . . . #maldives #underwater #viral #diveinmaldives #visitmaldives #underwaterworld #oceanlife #fyp #reels

Fourth Global Coral Bleaching Event declared

The Australian Great Barrier Reef and other coraline regions have already suffered heavily from abnormal high sea temperatures following this year's El Niño. Now scientists officially declared the 4th global mass bleaching event -- 1998, 2010, 2016, 2024.

For the next 8 to 10 weeks NOAA predicts potentially dangerous temperatures for the Maldives. Even the optimistic outlook expects Alert Level 2, meaning severe damages to the current health of the coral. 8 years after the devastating last bleaching, this would be a depressing throwback for the Maldivian reefs, which have in many parts managed to recover. We surely can't expect this coraline generation to be resilient to rising temperatures, so we can't do anything but keep our fingers crossed that the impact will be less severe than these models anticipate.

For certain, whatever will happen in the Maldives, a bad year for coral reefs on earth.
