So...in my two year experiment, the corals that sloughed all of their tissue and resurrected tissue (approx. 30 days after bleaching) fared the best the following year. This lead me to many discussions, with geologists, geneticists, genomists, big names in coral reef ecology, and finally my supervisors.
I have a new hypothesis for the tree of life. It starts with a polyp, everything starts from a polyp. I haven't expanded on this idea too much...but the idea behind it is essentially punctuated evolution (Stephen Jay Gould), but with a mechanism.
Anywho...I figured if the whole world could be categorised as essentially the same thing, from the same seed (if you will), then that makes Gaia hypothesis (in one form or another) true. If the Earth is a living organism (of which I no longer have any doubt) than astrology is true. Astrology is quantum mechanics, it is the ecology of the earth.
In ecology (and all science) we are currently looking at multiple dimensions, but describing/discussing them all on the same level. Which is why everything makes no sense in a grander perspective. more to this in a moment though.
Astrology lead me to the Mayan long count. So, I tried to prove the Mayan long count wrong, using the unified field theorem on human civilization (use subjectivity and objectivity by analysing time). I tried for two months, and gave in. I then started to continue my thesis..until I was told that I wasn't allowed to write what I had found. That sent me a little off kilter to say the least. I then tried to determine what the Mayan long count stood for. At first I had some airy-fairy bullshit about the unified field theorem being used for all of earth to come together to resolve our issues, because they are far and many. Velikovsky's work got me started on this...and his issue was that he used Astronomy, not Astrology.
I know what the Mayan Long Count (MLC) is, but I'm not ready to write it all out and prove myself on that one just yet. For anyone curious, I strongly suggest that you analyse human civilization through time, and realise that many cultures, such as the Egyptians, started the Book of the Dead, and other very famous and magical books shortly thereafter. They even had maps of the underworld, and were capable of UPDATING the maps! ...if that's not enough for you, why not look into what these civilizations (that were around at the last long count) had to say about the 3-12 days of darkness that came with the MLC
..then look into Greek (and other) "mythologies" where a period of about 1000-1500 years where heaven reined on earth...while that was happening, souls were tortured in the pyramids. This is not what the pyramids were meant for...but this is how they are being used. When these souls made their way back into civilization, they were tormented, aggravated, and started literally putting animals on trial...mostly cats. Not only did they put them on trial, but they killed them in large amounts- which caused the black death to fall upon Europe..rats overran the place since cats weren't killing them. Cats, however, were also worshipped as Gods, by those who were in "heaven". The interesting thing about cats (look into toxoplasmosis, e.g. http://www.economist.com/node/16271339) is that it is likely (as shown through neurobiology research) that cats can make women more moral and maternal, while they can cause jealousy in men (http://freakyphenomena.com/news/toxoplasmosis-disease-makes-you-cats).... don't go killing all of the cats! As with everything, there is good and there is bad.
I'll finish this one another day....before I have to use the rest of my precious "free-time" today on this blog. I have some thesis writing to do :)

..perhaps a little more information about myself first
Firstly, this is not a glory romp, I just want people to realise that I am highly educated, unbiased and have found information that the whole world will eventually know (am in the process of writing my thesis), but this change can and should start now :)
I was premed in my undergraduate studies. I finished in 5 years with a BS in biology, AA in Chemistry and a minor in geology. I worked full time to support myself, and at one point I had 6 jobs, as well as summer school. Ask any person that knows me and they will tell you that I am a passionate person that puts her all into everything, it's just not worth doing unless you do it right.
The only lecture that I had on climate change in my undergrad was from an oil company that said everything was a-ok. One of my professors became very heated on the topic, and removed himself from the room. Personally, I had not seen the evidence required, so remained a skeptic.
Now, that's supposed to be the beautiful, wonderful thing about science. It was designed to be self-correcting. When new data comes forward to refute or support an idea, the idea itself must change to suit the data. I can tell you with 100% certainty right now that I have the data to show what I say.
The only problem is that I've found the unified field theorem, and I have to use every field of science to explain what is going on....plus I still have an issue with dimensionality that I am trying to work out with a physicist (and I'll have to dive into mathematics soon enough).
Now, for my thesis, I have reviewed and entered data from >1000 published studies (I've reviewed well over the 10,000 mark, but not all studies have appropriate data- silly science, get your methods consistent, no one can properly review everything when everything is done so differently, and with no regard for time or space).
I'm working on all of this, but I'm also a single mother, in a foreign country (so no support from either USA nor Australia), that cannot afford daycare (costs more than I make a week). I miss my family, but they have recently filed bankruptcy - I cannot go home and they cannot come here. I'm already hitting opposition from science. It seems like there are certainly a lot of negative energies trying to stop me, but don't worry, I know things they don't.
For instance, when looking into psychology. Everyone realises that we only use a small portion (10% if you're gifted) of our brain. I've figured out how to use much more than that, and it's all about very seriously scrutinizing your actions through time. The more information that you can bring to light that has remained hidden in darkness, the better your energy will flow and the more successful you will be. I reached a point where I asked my subconscious (data storage area) to upgrade my preconscious (filter/translator between the subconscious and conscious), so that my conscious world would change. That little devil, the preconscious, will hide facts from you and change your perception of self.
Personally, I had hidden the fact that I was raped as a virgin. My preconscious had lied to me for years and told me that I was a slut. So, I acted as one. But, that's not who I am. I was doing a great job fending off my boyfriend before his friend raped me. I was happy to be a virgin and wait. I can only imagine that this applies to more women than are comfortable saying so. But say so! It's liberating! I know who I am again!
I know that I have a difficult situation at hand, I also know that no one but myself can get me out of it. The power within those words is the best advice I can give to anyone.

A basic introduction
Hello.
I'm a coral reef researcher living in Australia. I'm originally from Louisville, Kentucky.
I've been very stressed and frustrated lately: my research shows that humanity is killing itself.
Coral bleaching is caused by our pollution and overfishing. But, there's a very simple and cheap remedy for this: stop ignoring the problem!
My research also shows that corals are very very well adapted to bleaching...such that susceptible corals recover fastest, and resistant corals prolong bleaching as long as possible (e.g. partial mortality) but will eventually succumb to death from bleaching if conditions persist.
For my thesis, I completed a long-term experiment on coral bleaching. I mocked the thermal environment of the 1998 bleaching event...and moved corals from treatment tanks to recovery tanks once they had bleached. This was a very unique design, as I specifically measured the bleaching of a coral and left time variable, such that I made a new scale of observing time, the bleaching day (=0, negative is before and positive is after). Then, there was the problem of dimensionality...because I had random replication amongst branches (controlled site on branches)- and each branch was in a different phase of bleaching....so I had to take a big old mathematical step back. Differential calculus should be applied to study whole coral colonies (or anything more than one polyp for that matter).
Essentially, this two year experiment showed that corals had very high survival, and used various mechanisms to survive (partial mortality, tissue resurrection, sunscreens, fluorescence, fragmentation, etc.). Moreover, the corals that had tissue sloughed all resurrected tissue (because they have perforated skeletons which allows the tissue somewhere to remain hidden), and these bits of tissue survived the experiments. Even when all of my water flow suddenly stopped (from apparent after-effects of a cyclone, however I still think there's more to it than that, as many tried to stop my research before this point because I was pregnant and they didn't want me to be on an island...I'm fine and my little girl is so strong :)....
I'll stop here today, but realise that corals will be fine. They have been around for millenia, much much longer than us. They are called the canary in the mines...I say it should be the phoenix in the mines.
And, let me just note that for corals, brooding species (not spawners, but brooders who, like us get "pregnant") who have separate male and female colonies (like us) and who transmit genetic diversity to their young (like us) prolong bleaching, but suffer the highest mortality when they succumb.
