Scientists have discovered the deepest known evidence of coral reef bleaching, more than 90 metres below the surface of the Indian Ocean. [Thread 🧵]
Mesophotic reefs are thought to be resistant to bleaching due to their 30m+ depth. Diaz et al. show bleaching of corals at depths of 90m, possibly due to warm surface waters being pushed deeper. @Clara_Diaz_974 @nicola_foster @PlymUni @DeepSeaCRU nature.com/articles/s4146…
