The hottest water (positive anomaly, left) is now on the northern and southern #GreatBarrier, with cooler conditions in the middle.
This pattern is highly unusual. In past events, heat stress and coral bleaching have shown a north-south or south-north gradient (right)

The #GreatBarrier Reef has 1.1 million hectares of hard substrate at depths of 0–20m. It would take approximately 250 million large adult corals each 4,000 cm2 in size (i.e., 10,000 ha of additional coral tissue), or a billion 1,000 cm2 corals, to increase coral cover by 1%.

Trillions of baby corals are recolonising the northern & central #GreatBarrier after bleaching in 2016 & 2017.
Attempts to “assist” and “climate-proof the reef”, by growing some corals artificially, are inconsequential - and a distraction from direct action to reduce emissions.
