The Great Barrier Reef is the world’s largest coral reef system, composed of over 2,900 individual reefs and 900 islands stretching for over 2,300 kilometers over an area of approximately 344,400 square kilometers. The reef is located in the Coral Sea, off the coast of Queensland, Australia. The reef was formed by living organisms, mainly polyps from the genus Acropora, starting about 25 million years ago.
The Great Barrier Reef is home to a wide variety of marine life. It supports the world’s largest collection of coral and contains an enormous structural complexity, providing habitat to numerous species of fish, mollusks, echinoderms, turtles, and other marine organisms. The reef is also an important breeding ground for many species.
The Great Barrier Reef is facing several threats including climate change, pollution, and overfishing. Rising sea temperatures due to climate change are causing mass bleaching events where corals turn white and are at risk of dying. Pollution from agricultural runoff and urban areas is also having a negative impact on the reef’s health. Overfishing is depleting populations of important species such as groupers and sharks.
Despite these challenges, efforts are being made to protect the Great Barrier Reef. The Australian government has established marine parks to manage the reef’s resources and protect its ecosystems. There are also initiatives to reduce pollution and promote sustainable fishing practices.
