Climate change and tropical coral reefs, scenarios for bleaching events
Year:
2008
Author:
Hugo Ahlenius, UNEP/GRID-Arendal
Description:
Projected areas of above normal sea temperature where coral bleaching is likely to occur for the SRES A2 scenario (continuing current trends) by two different models, the PCM (1.7°C increase in 100 years) and the HadCM3 (3°C increase in 100 years) by approximately 2035 (left) and by 2055 (right). Both models project severe annual bleaching in more than 80% of the Worlds coral reefs by 2080.
