@ranahere999 The ESA journal answers your query, sea surface temperature increase due to Climate Change in some places have been moderated by upwelling of cold waters.
Note: Even higher temperatures are bad for corals. Corals are too sensitive, it is for this reason they are also considered as perfect determination of impact of climate change.
Also, always go with the concept explained in NCERT. That is, cold waters upwelled are not healthy.
This is because you might be right by referring to research journals, but UPSC determines answers based upon NCERT referred research sources.
So, its always better to stick to NCERT knowledge. Our point should be to secure marks as per their sources & not disprove UPSC. (** My apologies, if I came across as proving a point against your view).
