The above sketch represents part of the barrier encircling the island of Bolabola in the Pacific, as seen from one of the central peaks.

Hence in these cases it would appear, that volcanoes burst forth into action and become extinguished on the same spots, according as elevatory or subsiding movements prevail there.

The Old 97s have everything. The songs, the looks, the swagger, the live show. I dearly love them. I own everything they’ve recorded. This song is in my Top 20.

"Any good gardener knows what a good de-weeding can do for a vegetable garden. As it turns out, it’s much the same for coral reefs.
Following a volunteer “sea-weeding” program launched in Australia, scientists are witnessing compounding coral recovery both in quantity and diversity, and suggest that this simple method has the power to transform degraded reefs overrun by macroalgae.
In a balanced ecosystem, macroalgae is kept in check by the size and health of corals, but as extreme weather events or coral bleaching causes some sections of reef to die, macroalgae has no other neighbor keeping a check on its spread.
Over a period of three years, the joint Earthwatch Institute program led by James Cook University Senior Research Officer Hillary Smith and Professor David Bourne, also at JCU and the Australian Institute of Marine Science, has organized volunteer citizen scientists to help remove macroalgae at two experimental reef sites.
The results of the first three years of work and study have now been published in the Journal of Applied Ecology, and they show a 600% increase in coral recovery rates.
“It’s just like weeding your garden,” Smith said. “Every time we return, the seaweed is growing back less and less, so this method could provide lasting benefit without requiring endless effort.” ...
The importance of the study, Smith details, is that a lot of reef recovery efforts globally are powered by expensive, high-tech, and experimental solutions. The study hoped to show that manual de-weeding was just as effective, and thereby encourage organizations or nations that lack the tech or funding of a country like Australia to pursue sea-weeding as a way of protecting their corals.
“We have yet to see a plateau in coral growth within these plots at Magnetic Island, which is characterized as one of the degraded reefs on the Great Barrier Reef,” Smith said. “We also found an increase in coral diversity, so this method is benefitting a wide range of different coral types.”
Smith said her team are now scoping other locations where the sea-weeding technique could be useful, including the Whitsunday Islands, which are home to a different species of predominant seaweed.
They also want to employ them in French Polynesia, Indonesia, and even Singapore, where experts have identified out-of-control macroalgae spread along coral reefs."

Scientists discover five new species of black corals living thousands of feet below the ocean surface near the Great Barrier Reef

The Great Barrier Reef is one of the most popular tourist destinations in the world, and for a good reason. With its stunningly beautiful coral reefs, diverse marine life, and clear blue waters, it’s a natural wonder that is well worth exploring.

Let us take our new encircling barrier-reef, of which the section is now represented by unbroken lines, and which, as I have said, is a real section through Bolabola, and let it go on subsiding.

Today we’re visiting the Coral Restoration Foundation, the largest reef restoration organisation in the world.
Coral reefs are some of the most essential ecosystems in the world, but they’re also one of the most endangered. To help fight for coral reefs, organisations around the world are developing methods and technology to ensure that these lungs of the ocean have a bright future.
Coral reefs provide habitats, food, and protection to over 25% of all marine species, and support more than 300 million people in communities across the world. With the threats of climate change, ocean acidification, pollution, and biodiversity loss, coral reefs are disappearing at alarming rates. Here in Florida, running from north of Miami to the south of Key West over _ miles, lies Florida’s coral reef, the third largest Barrier Reef in the world, and only one within the continental United States.
