The warmer global climate phenomenon may have permanently destroyed some of the planet's most rare coral reefs. It was confirmed by an international team of researchers after surveying 21 locations and more than 50,000 square meters of coral reefs in the Seychelles Islands from 1994 to 2005.

Researchers have analyzed the long-term effects of warmer climatic phenomena, leading to an unprecedented and prolonged rise in temperature at the Indian surface, destroying more than 90% of the coral barrier inside Seychelles Islands.

The study was led by Nick Graham of the University of Newcastle (UK) with scientists from Australia and the Seychelles Islands. They demonstrated that the increase in temperature in 1998 had a long-term and long-term devastating effect, preventing the regeneration of many coral reefs. These reefs were broken and covered with algae. Their disappearance makes diverse animals in the sea without food and shelter.

The study also revealed that fish species diversity has decreased by 50% in the most affected areas.

' Saving many coral reefs may be too late, but this study has demonstrated the importance of reducing greenhouse gas emissions and their impact on diverse ecosystems. The most planetary , 'emphasized Nick Graham.
