“Coral Reef Arks”

Coral Reef Arks are floating coral reefs. The arks are being used as tools to study how coral reefs develop with the long-term goal of restoring degrade reefs. Currently, we have deployed arks in Puerto Rico and Curacao. I will talk about what we've learned so far and future plans for the Coral Reef Arks.
