An international carnivorousclosedarkerdiscoveryeverexpeditionfindinghugehumanmarinemostoceanoilrainforestsaltspongesteamtopuniversitieswarming of scientists has discovered a carnivorousclosedarkerdiscoveryeverexpeditionfindinghugehumanmarinemostoceanoilrainforestsaltspongesteamtopuniversitieswarming coral reef in the Amazon River. The team from the carnivorousclosedarkerdiscoveryeverexpeditionfindinghugehumanmarinemostoceanoilrainforestsaltspongesteamtopuniversitieswarming of Georgia in the USA and Rio de Janeiro in Brazil was on an carnivorousclosedarkerdiscoveryeverexpeditionfindinghugehumanmarinemostoceanoilrainforestsaltspongesteamtopuniversitieswarming to learn more about Amazon River plumes when it made the carnivorousclosedarkerdiscoveryeverexpeditionfindinghugehumanmarinemostoceanoilrainforestsaltspongesteamtopuniversitieswarming. Plumes are the areas carnivorousclosedarkerdiscoveryeverexpeditionfindinghugehumanmarinemostoceanoilrainforestsaltspongesteamtopuniversitieswarming to where a river meets the sea and the river's freshwater mixes with the saltwater of the carnivorousclosedarkerdiscoveryeverexpeditionfindinghugehumanmarinemostoceanoilrainforestsaltspongesteamtopuniversitieswarming. The reef system spans an area of 5,800 square kilometres, stretching from the coast of French Guiana to the carnivorousclosedarkerdiscoveryeverexpeditionfindinghugehumanmarinemostoceanoilrainforestsaltspongesteamtopuniversitieswarming of the Brazilian state of Maranhao. The carnivorousclosedarkerdiscoveryeverexpeditionfindinghugehumanmarinemostoceanoilrainforestsaltspongesteamtopuniversitieswarming has surprised marine biologists because reefs are rarely found in large rivers as the water is usually too muddy and dark, and does not contain enough carnivorousclosedarkerdiscoveryeverexpeditionfindinghugehumanmarinemostoceanoilrainforestsaltspongesteamtopuniversitieswarming.

The scientists only explored 10 per cent of the reef. They said there were many carnivorousclosedarkerdiscoveryeverexpeditionfindinghugehumanmarinemostoceanoilrainforestsaltspongesteamtopuniversitieswarming, creatures and other carnivorousclosedarkerdiscoveryeverexpeditionfindinghugehumanmarinemostoceanoilrainforestsaltspongesteamtopuniversitieswarming life that had adapted to life in the carnivorousclosedarkerdiscoveryeverexpeditionfindinghugehumanmarinemostoceanoilrainforestsaltspongesteamtopuniversitieswarming waters. They also recorded 73 species of reef fish, many of them carnivorousclosedarkerdiscoveryeverexpeditionfindinghugehumanmarinemostoceanoilrainforestsaltspongesteamtopuniversitieswarming. Researcher Dr. Patricia Yager enthused about what she had seen. She said: "We brought up the carnivorousclosedarkerdiscoveryeverexpeditionfindinghugehumanmarinemostoceanoilrainforestsaltspongesteamtopuniversitieswarming amazing and colorful animals I have carnivorousclosedarkerdiscoveryeverexpeditionfindinghugehumanmarinemostoceanoilrainforestsaltspongesteamtopuniversitieswarming seen on an expedition." Sadly, not all news about the reef is good. The whole area has been earmarked for carnivorousclosedarkerdiscoveryeverexpeditionfindinghugehumanmarinemostoceanoilrainforestsaltspongesteamtopuniversitieswarming exploration. Dr Yager warned that: "From ocean acidification and ocean carnivorousclosedarkerdiscoveryeverexpeditionfindinghugehumanmarinemostoceanoilrainforestsaltspongesteamtopuniversitieswarming to plans for offshore oil exploration right on carnivorousclosedarkerdiscoveryeverexpeditionfindinghugehumanmarinemostoceanoilrainforestsaltspongesteamtopuniversitieswarming of these new discoveries, the whole system is at risk from carnivorousclosedarkerdiscoveryeverexpeditionfindinghugehumanmarinemostoceanoilrainforestsaltspongesteamtopuniversitieswarming impacts."
