Corals stressed by warming conditions may benefit from the passage of a hurricane &#151; as long as it doesn't slam right into them. Bleaching of corals has been a growing problem in recent years with the loss of algae or reduction of pigment in the living corals that occurs when they are stressed by warming water.
