As the climate changes‚ coral bleaching is predicted to become more frequent and severe. Sea temperature increases and coral stress from other impacts may increase corals’ vulnerability to bleaching. As part of its Reef Health Incident Response System‚ the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park Authority has a Coral Bleaching Response Plan for detecting and responding to coral bleaching on the Great Barrier Reef. What is coral bleaching Many types of coral have a special symbiotic relationship with a

Are Ridding Corals with Disease”‚ Ed Yong interviews two microbiologist‚ Joleah Lamb and Rebecca Vega Thurber‚ on how plastic is destroying our coral reefs. Lamb states that plastic that sits on top of coral can cause disease to take over that part of the coral and spread. A study that was performed by Lamb showed that on average 4% of coral is affected by a disease‚ but 89% of coral that comes into contact with plastic is affected. There are many different diseases that affect the coral covered with

Cartesian Diver The purpose of the Cartesian diver is to demonstrate the compressibility of a gas‚ the incompressibility of water‚ Boyle’s law‚ Pascal’s law‚ and Archimedes’ law. Boyle’s Law states that under conditions of constant temperature and quantity‚ there is an inverse relationship between the volume and pressure for an ideal gas. Pascal’s Law states that if pressure is applied to a non-flowing fluid in a container‚ then that pressure is transmitted equally in all directions within the
