lol, now cold causes bleaching, too!
Yes, this is “normally associated” with “extremes of hot weather” except when it is associated with extremes of warmcold weather. Seems perfectly normal.
Why haven’t they recognized this as a poster child for climate disruption, caused by the unprecendented swing from warmhot to warmcold? Now I fear the poor coral is so stressed that it will bleach just for the hell of it, or from warnmedium extremes.
We’re doomed. The coral has gone Michael Jackson.
lol
…and last year in Florida too…
“First Florida Cold-water Bleaching Event in 30 Years.
During the first two weeks of January 2010, water temperatures in some parts of the Keys dropped into the upper 40s and lower 50s, which is about
20 degrees Fahrenheit lower than the typical temperatures of the upper 60s and lower 70s. The lethal lower limit for corals is 60 degrees Fahrenheit.
A widespread cold-water coral die-off has not occurred in Florida since the late 1970s.”

Evil warmcold is an inevitable peril resulting from manmade Climate Change!
…at the same time that the rest of the world’s oceans are heating, apparently:
“ScienceDaily (June 24, 2010) — Discoveries about tropical coral reefs are expected to be invaluable in efforts to restore the corals, which are succumbing to bleaching and other diseases at an unprecedented rate as ocean temperatures rise worldwide.”

..no, no .. its both warm and cold, apparently..
“Scientists link both hot and cool ocean temperatures to coral disease
We have seen studies on warmer ocean temperatures and the effects it has on coral disease and bleaching events but a new study shows the link between mild water temperatures during the preceding winter period with outbreaks of coral diseases.”

..no .. no .. definitely hot…
“May 2010 Global Temperature Is Warmest on Record; Spring and January-May Also Post Record Breaking Temps
ScienceDaily (June 17, 2010) — The combined global land and ocean surface temperature was the warmest on record for May

.. no … no .. cold! Positively this time…
“Meanwhile, Sea Surface Temperatures Continue to Fall”

Is it any wonder the coral is confused? It’s dying from indecision.
Yeh, they need to make a decision and stick with it!
