Goal
Technique: transplanting seagrass (seedlings, sprigs, shoots, or rhizomes) Transplant trials were also established in nearby Princess Royal Harbour at a site selected to test the effect of disturbance by sediment erosion. Survival was poor where most plants were lost within 4 months of planting when sand was eroded by 20–35 cm. Spatial extent 100 ha as reported. Reported project duration 0,3 year(s). Average survival 14,0% 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.
