Häppchen #Klimawissen: Der #Klimawandel lasst #Korallenriffe weltweit absterben.

Das fällt Außenstehenden kaum auf, es sei denn, sie wollen dort im #Urlaub schnorcheln. Für die Menschen vor Ort sind Korallenriffe jedoch wichtig für die #Wirtschaft, die #Ernährung und den #Küstenschutz. Der Niedergang ist lebensbedrohlich. 🐠🌊

Shipping regulations to reduce pollution may have exacerbated Great Barrier Reef bleaching

Rising ocean temperatures have been implicated in mass coral bleaching events affecting the Great Barrier Reef (GBR). These events have been increasingly frequent, with major events occurring in 2016, 2017, 2020, 2022, 2024, and 2025. Now, in an unexpected turn of events, it appears that regulations introduced in 2020 to reduce ship fuel pollution may have actually increased the solar radiation that leads to increased coral bleaching, according to a study published in Nature Communications Earth & Environment.

"Wet Season Days" is Track 6 of 13 from the album CReology of Cairns.

A love letter to that time of year in Cairns when the sky opens up and the whole tropics breathes differently. It’s the drumbeat of rain on the roof, the sticky heat, the downpours, the thunder in the distance — and the way life slows down when everyone’s stuck inside & the days blur together.
it’s a mood. 🌧️🌴

"Winter Time in the CNZ" is Track 5 of 13 from the album CReology of Cairns.

It is a laid-back Cairns C-funk sound. Winter up here means blue skies, lower humidity, and that perfect kind of warmth — while the locals pull on trackies like it’s a blizzard.

CNZ is the vibe. (Yeah, we know the airport code is CNS.) ❄️🌴☀️

This is my tribute to the pride, pain, and pure belief of Cairns Taipans fans — the team that carries Far North Queensland on its back every season.

Bring the ring north. 🏀🐍🏆

“Where the Rainforest Meets the Reef” is Track 2 of 13 from the album CReology of Cairns.

This song is a rootsy, heartfelt tribute to the Far North Queensland coastline — the place where mountain rain runs through green country and finds the blue.

If you’ve ever felt your chest loosen when the green turns to blue… this is for you. 🌿🌊☀️
