Scientists recently had a breakthrough in freezing and reviving fragments of adult coral, it could mean better conservation efforts in the future.
found that warming oceans contributed to mass bleaching events that killed 14% of its coral between 2009 and 2018. But with the recent breakthrough in freezing and reviving adult coral pieces, there is some hope that coral reefs won’t disappear. The team of scientists is
now assessing if this freezing method can be used to achieve long-term survival of the adult coral fragments. They also want to reduce the stress placed on the coral cells., a professor at Texas A&M University and lead author of the study, said that this process is simple. And it allows the freezing method to be replicated by conservation teams around the world. “It requires no moving parts or electronics,” he told. “This is essential to the practicality of any conservation technique because when this is deployed in real marine field stations, the high-tech lab infrastructure common to many laboratories will not be available.”
There are other efforts underway to protect coral reefs, including in the Florida Keys. Scientists at the Keys Marine Laboratory at the Florida Institute of Oceanography have moved over
