Neighbouring corals may rescue bleaching victims
Original: Kiss of life: How neighbourly corals can save bleaching victims
New reporting highlights how corals living next to heat-tolerant neighbours can help bleached corals recover, a phenomenon dubbed the 'kiss of life'. The findings suggest that the company corals keep may matter for reef survival as ocean warming drives more frequent bleaching events, offering hope for conservation strategies that protect resilient coral clusters.
Why now: Coral bleaching is a growing concern as marine heatwaves intensify, making recovery mechanisms newly relevant.
