To die for scenic reefs in Red or the South China Sea is dying;
pretty fishes and panoramic colors of soft and hard corals are
now down to a complex ecology similar to tropical forest
ecosystems. Compare to the micro organisms that makes the whole
thing more tremendous in doing all the destruction, the
predators and consumers, the producer algae and the tiny
invertebrates mean nothing. Catalina Reyes of CoECRS. (Centre of
Excellence for Coral Reef Studies) and the University of
Queensland has published her work alongside 4 colleagues, on the
bacteria, fungi and algae that live in this most complex marine
ecosystem. The change in this ecosystem recently is because of
our overproduction. Oceans now are Cola like, the CO2 we made
over the last century or two has made the sea water to feel like
one. As to Catalina's research, the acid has effects and that
are clearly identifies in the micro-world of corals. She links
it all up and explained, "So fish, turtles, sharks, lobsters and
other reef organisms may lose th
