In general opinion worm currents related to El Nińo are blamed for a spike in Indian Ocean water temperatures. Because of this reason died almost two thirds of coral reef in the Maldives. The worst was year 1998, but after that the underwater natural environment is preparing its comeback. The recovery of the corals is slow, but real.
