Marine National Park: A Fragile Refuge

Marine heatwaves in the year 2024 impacted life on water tremendously, but in the Gulf of Kutch, some of the hardiest corals we know stood strong against rising water temperatures. How was this made possible? And what makes the Gulf’s Marine National Park, India’s first marine sanctuary, a living laboratory of marine biodiversity with estuaries, creeks, corals, migratory birds, sea snakes and humpback dolphins — all featuring in the ecosystem?
