Beyond the surface - Understanding WA’s marine heatwave

  • - (AWST)
  • Indian Ocean Marine Research Centre
    64 Fairway, Crawley WA 6009, Australia

A marine heatwave unlike any seen before impacted the Western Australian coastline from mid-2024 through to mid-2025, causing unprecedented coral bleaching and impacting marine ecosystems along thousands of kilometres of coastline.

Join us this National Science Week for a free public talk about the WA marine heatwave. Scientists studying the extent and impact of this event will give an update on the status of the marine heatwave and participate in a panel discussion about what it means and what comes next.

Tickets are free but registrations are essential as space is limited

This National Science Week event is presented by the Department of Biodiversity, Conservation and Attractions and the Australian Institute of Marine Science.
