From Jennifer Marohasy<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

By\u00a0jennifer<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

There was significant coral bleaching this last summer.   It was remarkable at the Keppel Islands.  But because scientists have been falsely calling it every year, this important fact is likely to be lost to our collective memory.  It is also a problem when my colleagues deny this bleaching.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If we deny when there is bleaching, and claim bleaching when there is none \u2013 it is impossible to know the cycles and their causes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Last Sunday morning, at Secret Cove, I watched the turtle come out from under a stand of stark white coral \u2013 bleached coral \u2013 and swim towards me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We swam together for a short while.  It looked across at me. I held its gaze.  It propelled itself gracefully forward with its fore flippers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I tried to keep up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Then the turtle veered off, in a different direction \u2013 away from me, and towards more stark white bleached coral.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The turtle that I swam beside at Secret Cover, last Sunday.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The turtle was not bothered by me and seemed oblivious to all the coral bleaching.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The creatures under-the-water last Sunday morning, they seem oblivious to the colour of the coral that was mostly stark white, some healthy chocolate brown (replete with symbiotic zooxanthellae\/good microalgae), and some brown from infestations of macro algae smothering the corals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

To my eye, the fish and other creatures seemed randomly distributed, which is to say they could be found across the reef irrespective of the colour of the coral.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It was\u00a0not<\/em>\u00a0at all how the BBC have described coral bleaching at the Great Barrier Reef \u2013 they have recently been using the terms \u2018ghostly white\u2019, \u2018spooky white\u2019, \u2018like a graveyard\u2019. \u00a0\u00a0These journalists are clueless (CLICK HERE<\/a>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Secret Cove a week ago was badly bleached \u2013 and it was teeming with life.   But to know this, it is necessary to get under the water.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A big shout out to Jenn and the rest of the crew at Keppel Dive on Great Keppel Island (CLICK HERE<\/a>). Thank you for the opportunity to dive so many coral reefs last weekend \u2013 thank you for your care and for finding the Epaulette shark at Secret Cove.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To know that many of the stark white corals are still alive it is necessary to observe them up close. \u00a0\u00a0For example, the brain coral (perhaps a\u00a0Lobophyllia sp<\/em>. or\u00a0Caulastrea sp<\/em>.) did look \u2018ghostly white\u2019 from a few metres away.\u00a0\u00a0 But up close \u2013 after I reset my camera to take a macro \u2013 you can see that the polyps are still very much intact, that the polyps have a carpet-like texture concealing separate corallites.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We even found a Moray eel.\u00a0 I only managed to photograph its head, after waiting. \u00a0Its long slender body hidden under the corals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Secret Cove fringes Great Keppel Island, reportedly with some of the worst of the coral bleaching, considering the entire Great Barrier Reef this last summer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The BBC also mentioned ocean acidification and high temperatures \u2013 unprecedented they claim.   Again, they are just making stuff up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I\u2019ve noticed that the journalists and the scientists, from all sides of the political divides, increasingly just add to the established narratives rather than checking the data, or even visiting a coral reef.   This makes me an outlier \u2013 relevant only because you are reading me.   (For sure the institutions and sometimes even my colleagues and even social media want me cancelled so be sure to subscribe at my website for weekly e-news: CLICK HERE<\/a>)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is the case that our oceans are not acidic, not at all.   I wrote about this in a chapter for \u2018Climate Change, The Facts\u2019 back in 2017 (CLICK HERE<\/a>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As for the water temperatures, this last summer was hot, but not exceptionally so.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I write this, not with reference to the wholly contrived coloured maps they show you on the nightly news often for the whole Earth and always showing continuous increase (as though there is never winter), but rather with reference to more reliable location specific temperature data for the Keppel Islands.   For example, considering Australian Institute of Marine Science data for Square Rocks, and Bureau of Meteorology data for Rosslyn Bay, we can see that there is still a strong seasonal component to the temperature data and that this last summer temperatures were well within the expected seasonal cycle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

So, what caused the coral bleaching this last summer that has been so severe, particularly at the southern Great Barrier Reef, and particularly at the Keppel Islands?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Moon has a particular influence on sea levels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We see this not just in the daily and monthly cycles, but the Moon also causes the less well understood 18.6-year declination cycle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Moon takes a month to complete a revolution around the Earth. But it doesn\u2019t follow the same path, moving above the Earth\u2019s equator for two weeks and below the equator for two weeks of each month.  The distance above and below the equator changes with this 18.6 year cycle.  This is because as the Earth is tilted at 23.5 degrees relative to the Sun causing the seasons, the Moon is tilted at 5 degrees relative to the Earth, and every 18.6 years, the angle between the Moon\u2019s orbit and Earth\u2019s equator reaches a maximum that is the sum of Earth\u2019s equatorial tilt (23\u00b027\u2032) and the Moon\u2019s orbital inclination (5\u00b009\u2032) to the ecliptic. This is called major lunar standstill, and I define it as occurring when the distance that the Moon travels south is more than 28 degrees south each month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While we may intuitively expect larger sea tides as the Moon approaches its maximum declination considering this 18.6-year cycle, because the gravitational forcing of the Moon is less well aligned with the gravitational forcing of the Sun on the Earth at this time, we see on average lower sea tides at least in the data for the nearby Rosslyn Bay gauge for the last few months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

I suspect that the bleaching at the Keppel Islands this last summer can be blamed on the Moon; specifically that the lower tides caused by Maximum Lunar Declination combined with a short period of clear skies and no winds caused the water to stay continuously warm for a longer period than usual, in a way that was catastrophic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That is my hypothesis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The popular claim, the consensus claim consistent with anthropogenic global warming theory that the atmosphere replete with greenhouse gases has been warming the ocean is not credible, at least not considering the location specific data for Square Rocks between North Keppel Island and Great Keppel Island. \u00a0The available Australian Institute of Marine Science (AIMS) data shows that the water is consistently warmer than the air above it. \u00a0 As the water is consistently warmer than the air, it is not logical to suggest that the air is warming the water.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dr Alison Jones has been monitoring coral cover across reef flats and slopes in the Keppel Islands for some years.

Understanding Lunar Declination \u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Today, the Earth\u2019s axis is tilted 23.5 degrees from the plane of its orbit around the sun. But this tilt changes. During a cycle that averages about 40,000 years, the tilt of the axis varies between 22.1 and 24.5 degrees. Because this tilt changes, the seasons as we know them can become exaggerated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Every 18.6 years, the angle between the Moon\u2019s orbit and Earth\u2019s equator reaches a maximum of 28\u00b036\u2032, the sum of Earth\u2019s equatorial tilt (23\u00b027\u2032) and the Moon\u2019s orbital inclination (5\u00b009\u2032) to the ecliptic. This is called major lunar standstill. Around this time, the Moon\u2019s declination will vary from \u221228\u00b036\u2032 to +28\u00b036\u2032.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cBecause of the inclination of the Moon\u2019s orbit with respect to the Earth\u2019s equator, the Moon is above the horizon at the North and South Pole for almost two weeks every month, even though the Sun is below the horizon for six months at a time. The period from moonrise to moonrise at the poles is a tropical month, about 27.3 days, quite close to the sidereal period. When the Sun is the furthest below the horizon (winter solstice), the Moon will be full when it is at its highest point. When the Moon is in Gemini it will be above the horizon at the North Pole, and when it is in Sagittarius it will be up at the South Pole.\u00a0\u00a0 Quoting from Wikipedia,\u00a0CLICK HERE<\/a>\u00a0.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
