Proactive Coral Reef Restoration Using Thermally Tolerant Corals in Hawai‘i
AbstractEffective conservation of degraded ecosystems requires mitigation of the original cause of decline, but this step can be difficult in the context of global climate change. On coral reefs, persistent environmental stress which causes coral bleaching may be addressed by using coral restoration stock which is naturally more resilient, often termed

Restoration of herbivory on Caribbean coral reefs: are fishes, urchins, or crabs the solution?
That coral reefs are in decline worldwide, particularly in the Caribbean, will come as no surprise. This decades-long decline has reached a potential tipping point as the weight of the effects of climate change have come decidedly to bear on the planet’s
