CORAL REEFS IN A CHANGING WORLD

Reef-building corals are a delicate, but remarkably productive association between a cnidarian (similar to a sea anemone) and a colony of single-celled algae called zooxanthellae. This mutually-beneficial relationship is the powerhouse fuelling the coral reefs we see in tropical seas around our planet. Yet, corals, and all the biodiversity they support, are under threat from climate change.

Increases in ocean temperature cause the zooxanthellae to become toxic to the cnidarian host, and the hosts evict the zooxanthellae. The only hope for corals is that they can adjust to the new regime or move to cooler locations further from the equator. In this talk Dr David Aguirre will discuss some of the ongoing work to better understand the potential for corals to endure or outrun climate change.

Welcome to the 4th industrial revolution.
Only SPEED Braces use a 'Super-Elastic' energy-storing component called a 'Spring Clip' to straighten teeth. The SPEED Spring Clip works like a computer chip inside your braces. The Spring Clip is 'programmed' by your orthodontist when SPEED Braces are placed on your teeth. The Spring Clip, made of space-age material, then follows the programmed instructions by applying a light continuous force to move teeth to their correct position gently. SPEED Braces have revolutionized Orthodontics with an advanced design, using space-age materials and manufacturing to deliver beautiful smiles and lasting results to Orthodontic patients worldwide.
1. SPEED Braces are 1/3 smaller than traditional braces. Patients of all ages appreciate SPEED's small footprint and clean appearance.
2. SPEED Braces eliminate the need for the elastic ties that traditional braces require to straighten teeth. This decreases the pressure that is applied to the tooth and reduces friction, allowing the teeth to move more freely. The result... More efficient and comfortable tooth movement!
3. The miniaturized and rounded surfaces of SPEED-Braces are easy to brush and clean, making it simple to maintain good oral hygiene.
Speed up your life and get you customized bachmannsmile.
