The iconic Ningaloo Reef is experiencing a widespread coral bleaching event, believed to be caused by an ongoing marine heatwave along the Western Australian coast. Coral bleaching occurs when polyps that make up the colony become stressed, generally due to increased temperatures. We spoke with Dr James Gilmour from the Australian Institute for Marine Science, who has over twenty years of experience with corals and coral bleaching. You'll also hear from Paul Gamblin from the Australian Marine Conservation Society, who is calling on the WA government to take urgent action to protect the reef.

Breeding Heat Resilient Coral to Restore At-Risk Coral Reefs, with Dr. Saskia Jurriaans

How Can Coral IVF Fight Coral Bleaching?As ocean temperatures increase due to climate change, an emergent crisis known as coral bleaching is on the rise. Coral bleaching poses the largest threat to coral reefs, which are some of the most diverse ecosystems in the world. Coral reef habitats occupy less than one percent of the ocean floor, but constitute more than 25% of all marine life, providing habitats for a vast array of species from small organisms to large fish and sharks. Additionally, biodiverse reefs provide a variety of economic benefits, supporting jobs, tourism, and fisheries. Reefs also protect lives and property in coastal areas, absorbing 97% of a wave's energy while buffering against currents, waves, and storms.However, when ocean temperatures rise, corals become stressed and expel the marine algae living inside their tissues, known as zooxanthellae. Typically, coral live synergistically with zooxanthellae, meaning the algae provide food for the coral while the algae use the coral as shelter. Due to stress, corals expel zooxanthellae, causing them to become a white skeleton. If the temperatures remain high, the coral won't allow the algae back and the coral will die. Once corals die, reefs rarely come back. As climate change progresses with its warming trend, corals endure greater stress, and experience longer and more intense bleaching events. Between 2014 and 2017, 30% of the world's reefs experienced heat-stress leading to coral bleaching. In 2005, the US lost half of its coral reefs in the Caribbean in one year due to a massive bleaching event. Fortunately, marine biologists have been working on a new strategy to restore damaged coral reefs, known as Coral IVF (in vitro fertilization), which entails taking healthy coral eggs and sperm, crossing them in a supervised pool, and returning the mature coral to a damaged coral reef. Importantly, IVF coral are often bred to be resilient to heat-induced bleaching, making Coral IVF a successful strategy in fortifying reefs against bleaching.What exactly is Coral IVF?Coral IVF begins with biologists collecting spawn, or coral eggs and sperm, from heat-tolerant corals that have survived coral bleaching events. With these spawn, biologists can rear millions of baby corals in tanks and coral nursery pools before repopulating damaged reefs for restoration. So far, coral IVF has proven successful. The Great Barrier Reef (GBR) Foundation planted 22 large colonies of new baby corals off Heron Island in 2016. Four years later, the researchers found that the corals had survived a bleaching event and grown to maturity. The next year, the corals had reproduced and spawned babies of their own. In 2016, 81% of the northernmost section of the GBR was severely bleached, including mass bleaching in other sections. The GBR provides an estimated economic value of $56 billion, including 64,000 jobs stemming from the reef. Losing the reef would be a major economic loss for Australia, which has already lost 50% of its coral since 1995. With coral IVF, there is hope for an eventual repopulation of the reef with healthy corals. Beyond the GBR, coral IVF is taking place in reefs across the US, Mexico, and the Caribbean. Approximately 90% of IVF-created corals survived 2023's heat wave, holding on to the algae that sustain them.The Advantages of Coral BreedingCoral IVF not only mitigates short term reef loss, but also strengthens reefs in the long term. One study revealed that corals in the GBR that survived bleaching in 2016 had twice the average heat tolerance the following year. Research reveals that corals can pass on their adaptive strategies to their offspring. Experiments also reveal that heat-adapted corals can thrive in new environments and be an important source of reef regeneration globally. This technique can therefore be applied to any coral population. Further, the IVF process also can be done quickly, allowing scientists to respond to coral damage in an emergency.Climate change poses an insurmountable riskUnfortunately, climate change still poses a threat to IVF created coral reefs. By 2049, annual bleaching events will become the norm in the tropics. Research reveals that as global temperatures rise, coral will become less tolerant to heat related stress. In Australia, there has been a massive bleaching event every other year for six years. Due to the frequency of such events, coral's ability to reproduce is compromised for a number of years. As global emissions continue to rise, temperatures will continue to rise, inducing further heat-related stress. Eventually, coral may not be able to live in excessively hot ocean waters. Coral IVF is an effective strategy to prepare corals for future temperatures, but likely only up to a certain point.About our guestDr. Saskia Jurriaans is a marine scientist working on the Reef Restoration and Adaptation Program, a multi-organizational partnership between the Australian Institute Of Marine Science, Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation, and others.

Fifty-three days after Hurricane Helene, residents of Asheville can safely drink their tap water without boiling it. Why did it take so long? And, tribes' historic lands on the Gulf Coast are being lost to the sea. To slow it down, one tribe has turned to oyster shells.The Struggle To Restore Drinking Water After Hurricane HeleneWhen Hurricane Helene barrelled through the southeastern US in September, it dumped an estimated 40 trillion gallons of water on the region. That resulted in immense flooding that destroyed roads, buildings, power lines, and other infrastructure.And it also impacted the region's potable water supply. For weeks, residents in Asheville, North Carolina, didn't have access to clean drinking water because the extensive flooding washed large amounts of sediment into the local reservoir. As of Monday, limited access to potable water was restored, marking the first time in 53 days that local residents didn't have to boil tap water to drink it.Before that access was restored, we heard from listeners Sarah and Alison in Asheville who had their own questions about the water quality in their city, and the science behind sediment issues in a local reservoir.Guest host and SciFri producer Kathleen Davis is joined by Dr. Sarah Ledford, associate professor of geosciences at Georgia State University, to figure out why it can take so long for cities to clean their potable water after a storm like this and what other regions expect from the aftermath of future extreme weather.Using Oyster Shell Reefs To Counter Sea Level Rise In LouisianaOn a hot Friday morning, the sun beat down on volunteers gathered at the edge of the water in southern Plaquemines Parish. They passed heavy sacks of oyster shells to each other down a line. The volunteers loaded the shells onto boats to use them for building an oyster reef to help slow land loss in Grand Bayou Indian Village.“The oyster reef is a living thing. Baby oysters are going to attach to it. It's going to grow. It's going to become bigger,” said James Karst with the Coalition for Coastal Louisiana, the organization that built the reef. “But when the sea level rises, because oysters are growing on it, it will grow vertically as well, so it will continue to add protection.”Louisiana's land loss is an existential crisis for many of the tribes who live along the coast. Grand Bayou Indian Village, a small community, home to the Atakapa-Ishak/Chawasha tribe, is watching its lands wash away. Nearly 1,000 people lived in the village in the 1940s, but now there are only about a dozen homes raised on stilts right along the edge of the bayou. Boats are the only way to get around.“You can look at the GPS and it will indicate a different color for where land is,” said Karst. “You'll be looking at this on the screen, then you'll look up and there is no land there. It's just open water.”Volunteers built the reef by stacking bags of recycled oyster shells in the water, up and down the shoreline. The shells came from restaurants in New Orleans. The coalition recently expanded its oyster recycling services to Baton Rouge.Read the full story at sciencefriday.com.Transcripts for each segment will be available after the show airs on sciencefriday.com.

SummaryIn this episode, hosts Ron Hayes, Jason Loftus, and Mark Raycroft interview Jules Jacobs, a wildlife photographer who has bridged the gap between the pure science of oceanography and the real-world changes our oceans are experiencing. His photography and editorial have captured the attention of the world in the Smithsonian and New York Times. The discussion in this episode is heavily focused on the impact of human activities on ecosystems but quest Jules Jacobs also details underwater photography tips. Jules shares his journey from photographing seahorses in his aquarium to becoming an underwater photographer. They also discuss the importance of storytelling in conservation photography and the need to raise awareness about the biodiversity crisis. The conversation covers themes such as urban wildlife, rodenticides and their impact on predators, and the adaptability of wildlife. They also touch on the challenges and rewards of underwater photography and the thrill of encountering marine life in their natural habitat. Jules Jacobs shares his experiences and insights into the world of underwater photography. He discusses the unique challenges and opportunities of capturing wildlife underwater, emphasizing the importance of getting close to the subjects and finding local spots to explore. Jules also shares a personal story of a diving accident that led him to focus on photographing intertidal creatures and discovering the world of fluorescence. He highlights the significance of building relationships with scientists and using photography to contribute to conservation efforts. Jules provides tips for aspiring underwater photographers, including finding a subject, experimenting with different techniques, and gradually transitioning to more advanced equipment.TakeawaysConservation photography plays a crucial role in raising awareness about the biodiversity crisis and inspiring action.Urban environments can support diverse wildlife populations, and documenting their presence can help promote conservation efforts.Rodenticides can have far-reaching effects on ecosystems, impacting not only the targeted pests but also the predators that consume them.Underwater photography presents unique challenges and rewards, allowing for a closer look at marine life and their habitats. Underwater photography offers a unique perspective on wildlife, allowing photographers to get inches away from creatures that are typically more elusive on land.Finding local spots and focusing on a specific subject can help photographers develop their skills and create unique and original images.Building relationships with scientists and connecting photography to science and conservation can elevate the impact of the images and contribute to important research.Transitioning from DSLR to mirrorless cameras in underwater photography requires careful consideration of equipment compatibility and limitations.Adapting to challenging underwater conditions, such as poor visibility or particulates in the water, can lead to creative approaches and unique storytelling opportunities.Sound Bites"I'm not stuck somewhere that I can't be with my family.""We are all photojournalists, telling the story of our planet at this point in time.""Reefs are a really great indicator; they're the canary of the coal mine.""Underwater, we are entering a world that they've really never experienced humans.""Finding that local spot, finding what your thing is that you can really hammer in on, whether it's with birds and wildlife, terrestrially or underwater, is really how you grow your skills in an area.""Find a subject and get weird."Chapters01:00 Missed Travel Opportunities and Appreciating Safety06:00 The Power of Conservation Photography10:53 Exploring Urban Wildlife and the Impact of Rodenticides27:04 The Challenges and Rewards of Underwater Photography43:40 Entering the Underwater World45:26 From Diving Accident to Intertidal Photography47:51 The Importance of Building Relationships with Scientists51:43 Tips for Aspiring Underwater Photographers56:02 Transitioning to Mirrorless Cameras in Underwater Photography1:00:20 Adapting to Challenging Underwater ConditionsGuests (Instagram)@julesjacobs_photo

Want to save our coral reefs while enjoying a delicious meal? In this episode, we speak with Madalyn "Moose" Mussey from REEF (Reef Environmental Education Foundation). Discover how these beautiful but invasive Lionfish threaten native fish populations and coral reef ecosystems. Learn why spearfishing lionfish is a vital part of the solution, and how you can get involved as a citizen scientist to help protect our reefs. Plus, Moose shares insider tips on safely handling and preparing this delectable catch.  Key Takeaways: REEF (Reef Environmental Education Foundation) is a grassroots non-profit organization focused on conservation through citizen science, education, and outreach. Invasive lionfish pose a significant threat to native fish populations and coral reef ecosystems in the Atlantic and Caribbean. REEF's Volunteer Fish Survey Project allows divers and snorkelers to contribute valuable data about fish populations, which helps inform conservation efforts. The organization's Invasive Lionfish Program aims to control lionfish populations through derbies, workshops, and promoting lionfish consumption. Lionfish are venomous, not poisonous, and their spines require careful handling during preparation, but the meat is safe and delicious to eat. Some native predators, like sharks and groupers, are learning to hunt invasive lionfish, but it's essential to let this process happen naturally without human intervention. Responsible and respectful fishing practices are crucial for maintaining healthy marine ecosystems and balancing the needs of different stakeholders. Everyone, from fishermen to divers and the general public, can contribute to reef conservation through citizen science, responsible practices, and supporting organizations like REEF.

This butterfly is excited to speak with Jeff DeQuattro, Director of Restoration, Gulf of Mexico. “I love the Gulf of Mexico, from alligators in the wetlands and sunsets over the marshes to its salty air and the sight of blue crabs scampering over tidal oyster reefs. I love this place.”  TNC hired Jeff to manage a $3 million Recovery Act project to restore 1.5 miles of oyster reef in Mobile Bay, Alabama. Soon thereafter, he found himself leading TNC's oil spill recovery efforts along Alabama's coast. His role at TNC was then expanded to encompass other conservation and restoration activities along Alabama's coast. Before TNC, Jeff worked as an environmental consultant and stormwater professional for large industrial clients and developers throughout Alabama. He has also worked as a hazardous and non-hazardous waste broker, which included cleaning contaminated sites and oil spills. Jeff, who earned a degree in environmental studies from the University of California, Santa Cruz, says life on the Gulf has a “priceless quality that is unmatched in bounty and possibility. It's not appreciated for the natural resources that sustain the livelihoods of not only Gulf Coast residents but much of the entire country as well. Who would have thought that it would take the largest environmental disaster in the United States; history for the Gulf to be recognized for its contributions? But hopefully, this disaster made us realize that by working together with a sustainable frame of mind, we can achieve a more resilient and more bountiful Gulf of Mexico that will continue to support the quality of life that is our home.” In this episode, you will hear about his work at the Gulf of Mexico, oil spills, the value of oyster reefs, community involvement, youth, and more.
