SYDNEY, July 21 (Xinhua) – The Australian government on Friday announced several new plans including the shooting of salt in the clouds and the cover of a "solar shield" in the water to save The great coral barrier.
to bleach for two consecutive years as the temperature of the sea rises due to climate change. It is also threatened by agricultural runoff, development and the predatory sea star of the crown of thorns.
The government collected plans to protect the reef in January and six ideas out of 69 submissions will be tested
. The plans chosen draw salt crystals extracted from seawater in the clouds to make them more reflective and divert solar rays into space.
"The water vaporizes and you end up with a particle of salt those in the system can increase the amount of light reflected by the sun," says David Mead, a researcher at the Institute Australian marine science, which thinks the plan has real potential
. reflecting the particles in the seawater to cover the reef and protect the corals from heat stress.
"What's great with the film, is that it only contains one molecule of thickness and that we can simply self-educate Andrew Negr These ideas are part of the "Reef 2050" plan that was first published by the Australian government in 2015 to protect the reef and improve the quality of water.
According to the Australian Institute of Marine Science. According to a recent study from the University of Queensland and the Australian Institute of Ocean Sciences, the Great Barrier Reef Marine Ecosystem loses the ability to recover from damage and average rates coral recovery has been multiplied by six.
