Goal
Technique: transplanting seagrass (seedlings, sprigs, shoots, or rhizomes) Vegetative portions of P. australis were transplanted into Botany Bay (Australia), but after 3 months, percent survival was 60–70% for units anchored with wire pegs, and considerably less for unanchored Posidonia shoots. However, severe storms destroyed the transplants after only 6 months. Source: West RJ (1990) Depth-related structural and morphological variations in an Australian Posidonia seagrass bed. Aquatic Bot No spatial extent reported. Reported project duration 0,5 year(s). Average survival 0,0% as reported.

A variable shows "pending" instead of a contribution when no domain area has been set for it yet — the share of the world a project touched cannot be computed without one. The health percentages are accurate regardless.
