Underwater umbrellas proposed to shield corals from heat

Original: Could underwater umbrellas help corals survive hotter seas?

Scientists are exploring whether underwater umbrellas could shade coral reefs and help them survive increasingly hot seas. The idea is part of a broader push to develop ways to cool or shelter corals as rising ocean temperatures trigger mass bleaching events. The question of whether such shade structures can work at scale is now being debated.

Why now: Marine heatwaves and coral bleaching are drawing attention to novel ideas for protecting reefs.
