dustan: corals make the frame of the reef. the other animals live in and on that. they're like the trees in a forest; the fish live in the corals much like the birds live in the trees. the corals have specialized fish that live with them, and together they form the community of the coral reef. so we have a co-evolved community that's been doing this for 200 million years. it's like if you go into a small community in new england that's been around for maybe 200 years, everybody's very close-kn. there are all these people that have their little jobs, and they all fit together to make the community work well. so imagine one day when we go into that new england community and we kill the gardeners, and the weeds begin to grow. and then we sort of randomly kidnap people, take away a couple lawyers who take away a couple doctors, we take a few mothers, we take the garbage collector. oh, all of a sudden, the garbage doesn't get collected. pretty soon, that community just falls apart. milner: it's this diversity that's key, that's keeping the reef alive, the reef as a whole

coral reefs are home to around a quarter of all marine species. sia, as david shukman reports. it's one of the most shocking sights in the underwater world when corals die, either because they're damaged or because the sea becomes too hot for them and they turn into what looks like a graveyard. when you dive on a reef and it's just quiet and it's all monotone grey, it's desolate, it's so depressing. the solution, pioneered by professor smith, involves whole communities in indonesia. they take these metal frames, called reef stars, and fix them to the sea bed. fragments of live corals are attached to them, and the result is a revival of a habitat that many depend on. you see fish come in, you dive on it one day and you see the small fish sort of finding a hole in the reef stars amongst the corals. six months later, medium sized fish, the whole ecosystem responds when you give it this chance of kick—starting the system. the latest reef to be helped in this way is called hope. the word is spelt out in the new corals and the aim is to apply the same te

a small shift can have a on shellfish habitat, coral reefs and fisheries habitat. congress recognized the need for the causes and effects of ocean acidification and passed it in 2009. this legislation created a framework for science agencies such as noaa and national science foundation to dedicate resources to study. as a result, we made significant advancements in understanding ocean acidification. h.r. 1447 re-authorizes the funding for noaa through the fiscal year 2026, which lapsed in fiscal year 2012 and modernizes the activities by the plan governing the government's efforts and strengthening efforts. the coast research act designates noaa for coordinating the response. this is an important step to streamline and organize efforts across the government. this bill ensures that the voices of stakeholders in the industry are heard through a newly established advisory board. this input is critical to integrate the research, monitoring and adoption strategies for coastal acidification. this bill is a result of years of work of building a consensus including conserv
