Completed (successful/maintained)Monitoring: endedPublished as: Pumuteran Bay Biorock Project | Technique: Coral gardening - transplantation, Substrate Enhancement - Electric | Disturbance addressed: yes | Genera: Mixed | Method: Metal structures deployed to plant coral onto. | Authors' conclusion: Year 2000 hardly any coral growth or fish.With the help of village and use of biorock the area was transformed. Many different corals and a variety of fish. As the corals grew, so did the fish population Since 2001 the village of Pemutaran has implemented ban on damaging fishing practices and a ban on all fishing around the Biorock structures resulting in an increase in fish stock in the bay benefiting the fisherman and the whole village. | 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.

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.
