Now
you can explore coral reefs on Google Street View. Panoramic images of
reefs were gathered by the Catlin Seaview Survey - a project which
studies the health of coral reefs, and the impact of global warming.
The Catlin Seaview Survey is creating a record of the Earth’s coral reefs. They are home to 25% of ocean species, but are endangered by changes to the oceans. Warmer waters, increasing acidification of our seas and increased intensity of storms are all endangering their future health.
