Reef Restoration Research In The Keppel Islands Australian Coral Reef Resilience Initiative

Australian Coral Reef Resilience Initiative Aims The australian coral reef resilience initiative (acrri) is novel national research to influence both the size of future adult fish populations and the amount of coral cover on a reef. this initiative takes a ‘whole of system’ approach to reef restoration. spanning two oceans, it combines research in coral re seeding with healthy reef sounds. Aims scientists working in the australian coral reef resilience initiative (acrri), in the great barrier reef’s keppel islands, have demonstrated that corals seeded onto specially engineered devices and placed on fairly healthy reefs had a more than 85 percent survival rate at around one year of age.

Australian Coral Reef Resilience Initiative Aims The five year national research program, announced today, brings together research from two world heritage sites – the great barrier reef in queensland and ningaloo reef in western australia – to develop new and innovative methods to improve the resilience of coral reefs and mitigate the effects of climate change. Ms cummins is an aquaculture assistant with the australian institute of marine science (aims) and has returned to her sea country off konomie north keppel island for the annual mass coral spawning. The reef restoration and adaptation program (rrap) is a global leader in coral reef restoration and adaptation research and solution deployment. we bring together australian and international experts to create an innovative suite of solutions, to protect, restore and build more resilient reefs. our program is centralised on australia’s great. While coral reefs in australia have historically been a showcase of conventional management informed by research, recent declines in coral cover have triggered efforts to innovate and integrate intervention and restoration actions into management frameworks. here we outline the multi faceted intervention approaches that have developed in australia since 2017, from newly implemented in water.

Special thanks go to the woppaburra people for naming the project yarul dhingiga yarul means connecting, and dhingiga means laying down. this project further trials the mars assisted reef restoration system (marrs) reef star techniques on two of the inshore fringing reefs of great keppel island and at a smaller site at humpy island reef (burye). During the 2020 marine heat wave, we documented widespread and severe coral bleaching affecting 75%–98% of coral cover throughout the keppel islands in the southern inshore great barrier reef.
