Scientists Team Up To Develop An Unconventional Way To Save Coral Reefs Faster Than Ever Before
With global coral reef populations in steep decline around the world, scientists are searching for solutions to prevent marine predators from attacking spawning coral. Scientists from Reef Fortify in Florida developed a revolutionary solution for protecting new, healthy coral to restore coral reefs. The new “Coral Fort™” features phade®straws to protect and restore coral reefs, increasing transplanted coral survival rates from less than 40 percent to over 90 percent.
