Coral reefs and climatic change - a study from the Indian ocean - Red Sea region

Obiettivo



The main objective of the study is to compare sea surface temperature and coral growth between the recent period of the last two centuries, the last colder period of the Last Glacial Maximum, and the warmer Last Interglacial interval. Samples will be selected from the same sites and analysed using state-of the-art analytical methods. The Red Sea and the Indian Ocean are key areas for this issue due to a well established latitudinal gradient (290N - 230S).
The work proposed here will be done in an area which is until now poorly studied, but is, however, critical for a better understanding of global climatic change.
State-of-the-art analytical methods for determining detailed chronological and climatic data should provide more detailed constraints for assessing climatic changes in the equatorial areas.
