Coral Disease Causes, Consequences, and Risk within Coral Restoration
Trends in Microbiology, 2020As a result of increased reef degradation, restoration efforts are now being widely applied on coral reefs. However, outplanted coral survival in restoration zones varies substantially, and coral mortality can be a significant limitation to the success of restoration efforts.

Maximizing Genetic Diversity in Coral Restoration Projects
2022As natural coral populations decline, thousands of outplanted corals are poised to dominate reefs in the hardest-hit areas, such as the Florida Keys. Genetic management plans are urgently needed to prevent unintended erosion of genetic diversity in managed populations.

Methods for restoring damaged reefs using coral larval restoration
2022Increasing rates and scales of natural and man-made disturbances are accelerating the loss of foundation reef-building coral communities and ecosystem function on many reefs globally. Loss of adult breeding populations impairs or blocks reproductive success and natural larval supply and settlement processes that are essential for reef recovery.

Ecological Engineering, 2000
Abstract Coral reefs are widely recognized for concentration of biological activity, fisheries and tourism, coastal protection, geological processes, and aesthetic wonder. A principal cause of reef damage in Florida is ships running into reefs. The other major human impact on Florida’s reefs is dredging for beach renourishment and channel maintenance.

The Restoration Of Coral Reefs
2017Coral restoration in the Caribbean was brought into sharp focus in 2005 when reefs throughout the region were severely impacted by a mass coral bleaching event, triggered by prolonged exposure to above normal water temperatures. The goal of outplanting has primarily been to establish enough colonies from a variety of different genotypes to enhance the ...

Coral graft restoration of osteochondral defects
Biomaterials, 1998The quality of osteochondral repair produced by coral grafted into subchondral bone was examined. Osteochondral defects of 4 mm diameter and 4 mm deep in left femoral grooves of 24 rabbits were repaired using plugs of natural coral or left empty to heal naturally as ungrafted controls. The right knees were kept intact for normal controls.

Exploring the performance of mid‐water lagoon nurseries for coral restoration in the Maldives
Restoration Ecology, 2021Small island nations like the Maldives are highly dependent on healthy coral reefs and the ecosystem services they provide. Lately, Maldivian reefs have experienced considerable degradation as a result of severe mass bleaching events and accumulating ...
