| Description |
Analysis of SST data of this region, derived from the Giovanni on-line data system , developed and maintained by NASA GESDISC, revealed 1.02?C and 1.61?C rise in temperature above normal during 2014, in summer and winter respectively, could trigger coral bleaching (Figure 2). The present study indicates that the reef is under stress; however, a detailed study is required to understand coral bleaching more precisely.
