Abstract

In recent years, the phenomenon of climate change has intensified globally, which includes but is not limited to, global warming, extreme weather events, and changes in climate patterns. This has raised concerns among environmental organizations about the future of the global ecosystem. This paper focuses on the effects of climate change on marine coral reef communities and based on experimental data, literature information, and existing datasets to develop mathematical models to analyze the effects of global warming, ocean acidification, sea level rise, and ocean storms on coral bleaching, reef calcification, and other issues. The scientists documented the changes in coral reef status through regular monitoring and conducted laboratory studies to simulate the growth, bleaching, and survival of coral reefs under different climatic conditions, such as changes in water temperature and Pondus Hydrogenii (PH). Satellite imagery is used to understand the global distribution of coral reefs, their coverage, and changes in biodiversity.
