OPP-6JS5XHpermanent identifier · cite as oceanportfolio.org/p/OPP-6JS5XH

Completed (successful/maintained)

Published as: The Coral Reef Rehabilitation Project | Technique: Coral gardening - transplantation, substrate addition - artificial reefs | Disturbance addressed: yes | Genera: Mixed | Method: Corals of opportunity are transplanted onto coral reef frames called 'spiders' that are connected together to form a matrix. | Authors' conclusion: 8645 coral 'spiders', significant increases in fish stocks, which provides both food security and job opportunities for many locals. | This record was compiled from a published source and has not been confirmed by the organisation that carried out the work. No contribution to the condition index is recorded: the source reports survival of transplanted material, which is not a measure of ecosystem condition.
