Coral disease

Coral disease refers to a range of health problems that affect coral reefs, often caused by bacteria, fungi, viruses, or environmental stressors like pollution and climate change. These diseases can lead to tissue loss, discoloration, and death of corals, which are vital for marine ecosystems. When corals are weakened or damaged, it disrupts the entire reef habitat, affecting many marine species. Early detection and addressing environmental threats are crucial to help conserve and restore healthy coral reefs worldwide.
