Florida Reef Resilience Program (FRRP) is a collaborative effort among scientists, resource managers, conservation organizations, and reef users to develop strategies for coping with climate change and other stresses on Florida’s coral reefs. The strategies are resilience-based, meaning information about corals that are surviving and thriving – bouncing back after trouble like bleaching – is used to direct protection efforts.
Due to their importance as a fast-growing reef builder, the Conservancy began working with a Key Largo-partner to grow this species in an underwater nursery to restore them to their former abundance
To date we have over 50,000 corals in eight nursery locations and have outplanted over 13,000 colonies to the reef.
