New research from the Australian Institute of Marine Science (AIMS) has found that large and powerful cyclones can harm coral reefs as far as 1000km away from their paths due to the extreme ocean conditions that they can churn up. The team focused their study on Scott Reef off the northwest coast of Western Australia and how it fared as a result of Cyclone Lua – a slow-moving weather event that developed off the coast in 2012.
