Species-specific retention vs. recovery of coral thermal tolerance following nursery propagation
Communications BiologyThermal screening of coral source material is likely crucial to enhancing long-term restoration success under ocean warming. It is unclear, however, whether reef-based donor colonies retain their thermal tolerance in a nursery environment.

A Review of Coral Reef Restoration Methods
Journal of Student Research, 2023 Due to global warming and human activity, the coral population has decreased by 50% since the 1950s. (Wetzel, 2021). Many policies have been placed on conserving the coral reefs, but more is needed to stop the rapid decline. All around the world, different researchers performed multiple types of restoration methods to try and reverse the damage and ...
