http://robertscribbler.com/2017/03/02/widespread-coral-bleaching-strikes-great-barrier-reef-again-in-2017/

Quote: "During early 2017, the region over Australia’s Great Barrier Reef (GBR) experienced its hottest summer atmospheric temperatures on record. Peak water temperatures lag peak air temperatures by about a month. But already, sections of one of the world’s most vital marine sanctuaries are experiencing bleaching and disease. Worryingly, bleaching and heat stress is expanding over the reef at a faster rate than at the same time last year."

Despite such recurrence, the authorities have not done anything to tackle the situation or find out the reason of monkey deaths to resolve the tense situation in the area."

2017-03-08 - Three more dolphins wash ashore dead at beaches in Challaborough, Thurlestone and Wonwell (Britain):
http://www.southhams-today.co.uk/article.cfm?id=108863
http://www.sott.net/article/344621-Three-more-dolphins-found-dead-on-beaches-in-South-Hams-UK

Quote: "Three more common dolphins were reported washed up on South Hams beaches this week. The dead dolphins were found on the beaches at Challaborough, Thurlestone and Wonwell and reported to the Natural History Museum for post mortem. More than 100 dolphins have been found dead on south west beaches in the first six weeks of this year alone, with most being found in Cornwall."

Quote: "The alarming fact is that all experts agree that only one per cent of the dolphins killed ended up washed-up on the shoreline..."

Note: And since they've FOUND over 100 dead dolphins, that means at least ten thousand dolphins have likely died in this area, since the beginning of the year...

http://www.fasterthanexpected.com/2017/03/12/scientists-race-to-prevent-wipeout-of-worlds-coral-reefs/

Quote: "The world has lost roughly half its coral reefs in the last 30 years. Scientists are now scrambling to ensure that at least a fraction of these unique ecosystems survives beyond the next three decades. The health of the planet depends on it: Coral reefs support a quarter of all marine species, as well as half a billion people around the world."

Quote: "'This isn’t something that’s going to happen 100 years from now. We’re losing them right now,' said marine biologist Julia Baum of Canada’s University of Victoria. 'We’re losing them really quickly, much more quickly than I think any of us ever could have imagined.' Even if the world could halt global warming now, scientists still expect that more than 90 percent of corals will die by 2050."

http://www.fasterthanexpected.com/2017/03/16/climate-change-has-permanently-changed-the-great-barrier-reef/

Quote: "Scientists speculate that the era of never-ending global coral bleaching may have already arrived, decades early. In a new study, published Wednesday as the cover story in the journal Nature, Hughes and his colleagues — the paper includes an astounding 45 co-authors — find that 91 percent of the Great Barrier Reef has bleached at least once during three major bleaching events in 1998, 2002, and 2016. The most recent of these events — triggered in part by a strong El Niño — was so severe that there is no similar analog in the thousands of years of ancient coral cores scientists use to study past climates."

http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2016/02/160225101603.htm

Quote: "Two University of Michigan-based scientists are leading an effort to explain the recent deaths of at least 75 howler monkeys living in the tropical forests of southwestern Nicaragua. Liliana Cortés-Ortiz and Kimberly Williams-Guillén are assembling a multi-institution team of experts to test various scenarios that might explain the Nicaraguan deaths, which come on the heels of smaller howler monkey mortality events in Ecuador and Panama. 'It's really, really, really unusual to see this many monkeys sick all at once and to see this many monkeys dead all at once,' said ecologist Williams-Guillén, a visiting scholar at U-M's School of Natural Resources and Environment who has studied wild howler monkeys in Nicaragua since 1999."

Quote: "Local birds are dying and biologists are scrambling to find out why. The deaths are being reported up and down the coastline. Experts are asking for the community's help in letting them know if they see something suspicious. Some birds -- including ospreys, pelicans and other seabirds -- were close to death when locals rescued them, and they were rushed to the Bird Emergency Aid & Kare Sanctuary, or B.E.A.K.S. Biologists with the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission said something mysterious in the ocean is making locals seabirds sick. "
