Imagining outcomes of coral restoration and adaptation intervention in the Great Barrier Reef
Restoration initiatives are expanding globally to address climate and biodiversity threats and to help ecosystems adapt to environmental change. Research in Australia's Great Barrier Reef (GBR) is exploring novel intervention options to scale up restoration, protect corals from climate extremes, and accelerate their adaptation to heat stress.
