1·Refugia are areas on the reef that are seemingly well resistant to bleaching.
生物避难所是珊瑚礁上那些看起来很耐漂白的地方。
2·Recently, researchers have used data collected by monitoring surface water temperatures to improve the ability of a reef to recover from bleaching.
最近，研究人员通过监测表面水温获得数据，并用此数据来提升珊瑚礁从漂白状态中恢复的能力。
3·Warmer sea temperatures caused by climate change and periodic El Nio events have caused large areas of coral to be wiped out in so-called "bleaching" events.
气候变化及周期性的厄尔尼诺现象引起的海水变暖，已经造成了大面积的珊瑚礁在所谓的“漂白”事件中消失殆尽。
4·Now, we have evidence that corals in these locations are able to escape the destructive bleaching that affects portions of the reef in shallower or warmer water.
现在，我们有证据显示，在这些位置的珊瑚能躲过破坏性漂白这一劫，但在水位更浅和水温更高处生长的珊瑚则会受到影响。
5·Reductive bleaching is also carried out, using sodium hydrosulphite.
用连二亚硫酸钠也进行了还原漂白。
