Coral Restoration focuses on rehabilitating damaged or degraded coral reefs through active interventions. Techniques include coral gardening, where fragments of healthy corals are grown in nurseries and then transplanted onto reefs, and the use of artificial structures to promote natural coral growth. This activity aims to enhance reef resilience, restore biodiversity, and improve the ecological functions of coral reefs, which are essential for marine life and coastal protection.

Coral Restoration

Coral Monitoring is the systematic observation and recording of coral reef health and conditions. This activity involves assessing various parameters such as coral cover, water quality, biodiversity, and the presence of stressors like bleaching, disease, and human impacts. The data collected is crucial for understanding the state of coral reefs, identifying changes over time, and informing conservation strategies to protect these vital ecosystems.

Coral Monitoring

Cetacean Protection involves safeguarding whales, dolphins, and porpoises from threats such as hunting, habitat loss, pollution, and entanglement in fishing gear. This activity includes monitoring cetacean populations, implementing marine protected areas, advocating for laws and policies that protect these marine mammals, and conducting rescue operations for stranded or injured individuals. It aims to ensure the long-term survival and health of cetacean species through conservation, research, and public education.

Cetacean Protection

Kelp Monitoring involves tracking the health and extent of kelp forests, which are crucial marine habitats that support diverse species and provide numerous ecological benefits. This activity includes measuring kelp density, growth rates, and the impacts of environmental factors such as water temperature, pollution, and grazing by herbivores. Monitoring helps identify changes and threats to kelp forests, guiding conservation efforts to protect and manage these important ecosystems.

Kelp Monitoring

Turtle Husbandry involves the care and management of sea turtles in captivity, often as part of conservation and rehabilitation programs. This activity includes providing suitable habitats, proper nutrition, medical care, and sometimes breeding to support turtle populations. Turtle husbandry is essential for the rescue and recovery of injured or sick turtles, and for educating the public about the threats facing these ancient mariners, ultimately contributing to their conservation in the wild.

Turtle Husbandry

Shark Conservation aims to protect shark species from overfishing, habitat destruction, and the demand for shark products like fins and meat. This activity includes research on shark populations, promoting sustainable fishing practices, establishing marine protected areas, and raising public awareness about the ecological importance of sharks. Effective conservation ensures the survival of these apex predators, which play a critical role in maintaining the balance and health of marine ecosystems.
