Early signs of coral bleaching observed in Redang Island, Malaysia
The consequences of record-breaking sea temperatures in recent months are becoming increasingly evident, particularly coral bleaching. The early signs of this phenomenon have been observed in Redang Island, Malaysia, which is visible in this image acquired by one of the Copernicus Sentinel-2 satellites on 15 May 2023. The Malaysian government has been closely monitoring the coral reefs and efforts are underway to protect these ecosystems through conservation initiatives and appropriate management responses. |
