OPP-2PBTJZpermanent identifier · cite as oceanportfolio.org/p/OPP-2PBTJZ

Completed (successful/maintained)Monitoring: ended

Published as: Growing corals in line and floating nurseries at Tayrona Park. | Technique: Coral Gardening - Nursery Phase | Genera: Acropora | Method: Experiment testing growth and survival of fragments in line and floating nurseries. Opportunistic study of bleaching survival on nurseries vs reef corals. | Post-restoration monitoring: 18 months | Authors' conclusion: No significant differences between nurseries survivorship and growth in the first 7 months. Higher survival of coral fragments on nurseries (95%) compared to natural reef population (10-90%) during bleaching event | Lessons reported: n/a | 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.
