Deep reefs provide corals little refuge from extreme ocean heat
Source: Phys.org - latest science and technology news stories · Published

Once regarded as potential safe havens for corals in a warming climate, deep reefs, which lie at depths between 90 and 150 meters (295 and 490 feet), are no longer sheltered from increasingly intense marine heat waves, according to a new study in Geophysical Research Letters.
