RFM747MW–A gorgonian fan coral (Acabaria splendens), with its many eight-tentacled polyps extended to catch passing micro-plankton. These colonies of tiny delicate animals, living in their brightly coloured communal skeletons, serve to illustrate the fragility and beauty of tropical and sub-tropical coral reefs. Very sadly, such reefs are dying; over a quarter have been reduced to rubble during the last twenty years. This trend is continuing. They are the most vulnerable of our planet's ecosystems, as they have very limited capacities to adapt to rising temperatures and acidification. Egyptian Red Sea.

RF2M3N329–A reef is a ridge of material at or near the surface of the ocean. Reefs can occur naturally. Natural reefs are made of rocks or the skeletons of small animals called corals. Reefs can also be artificial—created by human beings. Coral reefs begin to form when free-swimming coral larvae attach to submerged rocks or other hard surfaces along the edges of islands or continents. As the corals grow and expand, reefs take on one of three major characteristic structures — fringing, barrier or atoll.

RM2PKGPYA–Coral Sea. 7th Apr, 2023. FILE: In February 2023, Tropical Cyclone Gabrielle churned south across the Coral Sea and passed over the Bellona Plateau, a shallow area 600 kilometers (400 miles) west of Grande Terre, the principal island of New Caledonia. Once a sizable island during the Pleistocene ice ages, the plateau is now submerged under 25-50 meters of water. It hosts reefs that teem with corals, coralline algae, mollusks, foraminifera, and many other types of marine life with calcium carbonate skeletons or shells. After the storm clouds cleared, the satellite observed carbonate sediment
