The initial onset of mass coral bleaching can vary among different species, geographic locations, types of reef zones and a fluctuation of severity, which makes it very difficult to predict where or when it will occur. The Florida Keys BleachWatch Program...

This online newsletters assesses the risk for coral reef bleaching events in the Florida Keys based on remote sensing and environmental monitoring data, field observations, and climate predictions provided by NOAA's Coral Reef Watch.
