An update on the bleaching event of Meandrina meandrites in Boynton Beach,
FL. On November 13 only about 5% of the Meandrina colonies in the study area
remained bleached. Nearly 1/3 are recovering and exhibit a light brown, honey
colored pigmentation. The onset, peak and recovery of the 2004 Meandrina
bleaching cycle is consistent with the observations of the last four years. Additional
information and photos are posted at:
