Welcome! You are invited to join a webinar: Science, Strategies, and Solutions for Responding to Coral Bleaching Events Webinar. After registering, you will receive a confirmation email about joining the webinar. Coral reefs are among the most vibrant and vital ecosystems on Earth, and while they are experiencing increasing pressure from longer and more intense marine heatwaves, they also continue to demonstrate remarkable resilience and recovery potential when given clean water, healthy fisheries, and protection. To mark Coral Bleaching Awareness Month, the Coral Reef Alliance, International Coral Reef Initiative, and the Reef Resilience Network are hosting a special #ForCoral webinar where scientists and practitioners from around the world will present NOAA’s latest outlook on the Fourth Global Coral Bleaching Event and discuss its implications for reef ecosystems. Speakers will share innovative strategies to enhance coral reef resilience in the face of climate change. They will explore region-wide coordination of monitoring efforts to guide conservation priorities and share unique approaches for identifying thermally tolerant coral colonies for climate-smart restoration and conservation. It is not too late to act. There is still hope, and together—through science, collaboration, and collective commitment—we can chart a path toward a more resilient future for coral reefs and the communities that depend on them. The webinar will last for 75 minutes and the presentations will be followed by an open question-and-answer session. A recording of the webinar be available on the Reef Resilience Network website and YouTube channel.

Coral Reef Alliance, International Coral Reef Initiative and Reef Resilience Network will host the #ForCoral webinar, which focuses on new strategies to protect #reefs amidst #climatechange.

AI Models Outperform Traditional Climate Predictions, Offering New Insights for Coral Reef Futures NEW YORK, NY, October 21, 2025 – A new study led by the Wildlife Conservation Society (WCS) finds that artificial intelligence (AI) models are providing more accurate and more hopeful predictions for ...

New science by @wcs.org Director of Marine Science, Dr Tim McClanahan, gives further hope #ForCoral. His review of modelling studies show the outlook for reefs is not uniformly grim – with many reefs remaining stable or improving under the right conditions.

A newly released Global Tipping Points report suggested that coral reefs have passed thresholds beyond which they can't bounce back.

Our new study from Fiji shows just the opposite - astonishing, rapid recovery within 4 years of reefs pummeled by a category 5 cyclone.

Fiji’s Coral Reefs Show Remarkable Recovery After Category 5 Cyclone SUVA, FIJI, October 21, 2025 - A new study led by WCS, University of the South Pacific, and partners has found that coral reefs in Fiji showed remarkable resilience after being battered by Category 5 ...

We are standing at a tipping point, but also at the edge of a powerful opportunity #ForCoral.

Coral reefs are under unprecedented stress. But this is not the end of the story.

New research co-authored by WCS shows that some reefs can still recover, even after catastrophic damage. bit.ly/47ojYfG 🌏

Today is #sharkawarenessday. Sharks are essential for biodiversity. Here’s how:

🦈 They regulate fish populations
🐟 They prevent prey species from overgrazing habitats
🌿 They protect coral reefs and seagrass beds
🌊 They keep marine food webs in balance

Our @wcs.org coral reef team had a great event in the #ForCoral pavilion yesterday at #UNOC3, showcasing new innovative science that is identifying the next global portfolio of climate-resilient coral reefs.

At #UNOC3 today, we unveiled with partners the first new 50 Reefs+ maps, pinpointing climate-resilient coral reefs across key regions including the Coral Triangle, Pacific, and Western Indian Ocean.

Will help guide conservation and investment. #ForCoral 🪸
