Latest Science

Heat, human, hydrodynamic, and habitat drivers measured from space correlate with metrics of reef health across the South Pacific

This paper in Coral Reefs, utilized the Living Oceans Foundation’s Global Reef Expedition field dataset to build a model that can predict coral cover and other metrics of coral reef health using open-source satellite data.

🪸 Join us for the next session of our #NavigateWithCare webinar series: “Reefs are Nature’s Ally.”Coral reefs, mangrove forests, and seagrass meadows do more than sustain marine life—they’re natural allies for boaters and coastal communities alike. But these ecosystems are under growing pressure.Join us to learn how navigating with care can make a difference. Conservation scientists and maritime leaders will share how responsible boating and the use of navigation aids can help protect these fragile habitats while keeping mariners safe at sea.🎙️ Speakers:• Juliet Karisa, Research Scientist, Kenya Marine and Fisheries Research Institute (KMFRI) • Ian McLeod, Adjunct Professor, JCU: James Cook University, Australia • Thierry Nervale, Director, Solomon Islands Maritime Authority (SIMA)• Krista D. Sherman, Senior Scientist, Perry Institute for Marine Science📅 Thursday, October 16🕒 9 AM FJT / 5 PM EST / 11 PM CESTBrought to you by the International Foundation for Aids to Navigation (IFAN) and the Khaled bin Sultan Living Oceans Foundation (KSLOF), this #OceanDecade-endorsed series explores how mariners and ocean advocates can help protect sensitive marine ecosystems through safe and sustainable navigation practices.👉 Register now: https://events.teams.microsoft.com/event/… ...
