At the Marine Mesocosm, Brazilian scientists made an unprecedented experiment that concluded that global warming is a serious threat to the survival of corals, organisms of great importance to marine biodiversity, noting that the bleaching and death of corals around the world in recent years may have been caused exclusively by the increased temperature of the oceans.
