The situation is made worse if there are few clouds, and a high level of UV radiation blasts the coral.

She lay like that for months, life a series of blood tests, radiation blasts and IVs.
Yet oncologists have long used the same blunt weapons to fight different types of cancer: cut the tumour out, zap it with radiation or blast it with chemotherapy that kills good cells as well as bad ones.New cancer drugs are changing this.
Then the young star's blazing radiation will blast off its hydrogen and helium over the next billion or so years, leaving the core of rock and ice.
They zapped a tiny plastic pellet with 12 laser beams fired simultaneously and allowed some of the resulting radiation to blast a pellet of silicon, a common element in accretion disks.
Results for radiation and blast are typical of the best available non- classified models but clearly have not been experimentally verified for large urban downtown areas with many tall concrete buildings.
The extensive radiation probably blasted chunks of atomic nuclei from mineral grains wafting through space as the solar system condensed, Feigelson says.
If it is Chicxulub-size and it hits one of our landmasses, some two hundred thousand cubic kilometres of the Earth's surface will be thrust up into the atmosphere, even as the thermal radiation of the blast sets fire to the Earth's cities and forests.
Even if underground sites were accurately identified, the resulting nuclear explosions could spread the blast, radiation and toxins over populated areas.
