1
The Bleaching of Coral Reefs Concerns Dr.
Christian Heesch
As a marine biologist Dr. Christian Heesch has a
growing concern with the bleaching of coral reefs
throughout the world. Believed to be the result
of climate change, changes in water temperature
cause coral reefs to lose their color and appear
bleached. It is not the change of color that is
concerning, but this shows increased stress on
the coral. As a consequence, these stressful
conditions cause the coral to grow at a slower
rate.

The Great Barrier Reef meets Dr. Christian Heesch
Dr. Christian Heesch had the pleasure of
exploring The Great Barrier Reef while working
toward his graduate degree He traveled from his
home city of New York to Queensland Australia.
The doctor spent a week sightseeing on the
worlds largest reef system in the Coral Sea.
Having the opportunity to experience one of
natures wonders, he hopes to return someday. If
he doesnt get to come back, he will carry
lifelong memories of a beautiful place.
Dr. Christian Heesch may be a marine biologist
but hiking is one of his favorite hobbies. The
doctors best memory of hiking was his trip to
The Maze in Utah. Even an experienced hiker can
get confused by this labyrinth. It is
recommended that anyone who wants to visit The
Maze be experienced in the map reading and
tracking. As a precaution it is a good to give a
park ranger a map of your hike.

The Reason Dr. Christian Heesch Collects Stamps
The marine biologist, who recently received his
Ph. D, Dr. Christian Heesch likes to collect
stamps. When he was a boy he gained an interest
in stamps because of the letters that were
written to him from his family around the world.
When he saw the designs and patterns on the
stamps he was intrigued by them. Dr. Heesch still
collects stamps because it is an excellent outlet
to learn about cultures, geography, and world
history.

Harbour. This ship was a famous schooner and
fishing vessel. Dr. Heesch is quite honored to
have won a copy of this stamp.
