Correct Transcript:

Coral reefs are the most efficient natural wave dissipators on earth, and so we need to take care of them. They provide a very valuable ecosystem service to the land behind coral reefs, and the dissipation occurs due to two processes. One is bottom friction which is due to the robosity of the coral reefs. So coral reefs are these 3D. Organisms yet that stop the waves and the other is wave breaking and wave breaking depends on water. There so with. Climate change we're expecting to have a deeper water as coral reefs gets flooded with. And we are also expecting to have less rugosity as bleaching modifies our coral reefs, so wave dissipation capacity will be accepted or is affected by climate change. With deeper reefs with less coral and therefore will have less dissipation. OK.

Printed "simple", the speaker says "valuable"

Explanation: You will hear "very valuable ecosystem service". They start with different letters, so listen to the whole word.

Printed "gifted", the speaker says "affected"

Explanation: The speaker says "is affected by climate", not "gifted". They start with different letters, but both end the same, so trust the audio.

"3D" matches the audio

"bleaching" matches the audio

Explanation: "as bleaching modifies our coral reefs" may look tricky. The speaker says it exactly, so do not click it.
