[Coral-List] Coral bleaching in the western pacific warm pool.

[Ruben van Hooidonk]

Hi,

During research on thermal coral bleaching in the western pacific warm pool,
I noticed that observations of coral bleaching in that region are very
limited in the reefbase.org database. I would like to know if anyone knows
of any bleaching episodes not recorded in that database.

You can see the location of the warm pool here:

If you know of any observations of bleaching in that region, please to
submit your data on the form that can be found here:

Thank you very much for your help, and if you have any questions or remarks
please ask me directly,
