When the Heat's On, Some Fish Can Cope: Certain Tropical Species Have Greater Capacity to Deal With Rising Sea Temperatures Than Thought

ScienceDaily (Dec. 5, 2011) — Australian scientists have discovered that some tropical fish have a greater capacity to cope with rising sea temperatures than previously thought -- by adjusting over several generations.

The discovery, by researchers at the ARC Centre of Excellence for Coral Reef Studies, James Cook University and CSIRO sheds a ray of hope amid the rising concern over the future of coral reefs and their fish under the levels of global warming expected to occur by the end of the 21st century.
Understanding the ability of species to acclimatise to rising temperatures over longer time periods is critical for predicting the biological consequences of global warming -- yet it remains one of the least understood aspects of climate science. The scientists were seeking to discover how fish would cope with the elevated sea temperatures expected by 2050 and 2100.

I got very interested with this article because last year I was learning about Climate Change, and how the sea temperatures may change. We are going through many changes that are affecting us now or will in the future, for me it is very important to be informed of the things that are happening around the world and the subject of this article talks about something that may affect me someday. We can see that a population of fish can affect the temperature of the sea.

The Areas of Interactions used in this article are, in my opinion, Environment, because what happens under the sea is also part of our environment and this may force us to do many changes that may affect the environment. I think that Health and Social Education are also used in this article because this article is to infomr us all of what is happening so this is social education and the population of fish may affect our health because some of them may be contamined or they may reporoduce with health deseases.
This is a very interesting article that we should all read and take some precautons and learn of what is happening out there.
