RIYADH: Researchers have reported a notable improvement in coral reef conditions despite the potential of damage from the heat of the summer months, the Saudi Press Agency reported on Tuesday.
Field surveys conducted by the National Center for Wildlife reported promising results in coral health and overall ecosystem stability.
They found no cases of severe bleaching or mass marine mortality, even amid high temperatures.
The resilience of the ecosystem reflects the effectiveness of national conservation efforts, according to the SPA, reinforcing the Kingdom’s growing reputation in biodiversity management.
The program was carried out by Saudi scientists and researchers using advanced remote sensing technologies and field instruments to monitor the physical and chemical properties of the Red Sea’s water.
