Scientists boost coral larval settlement with sound and engineered habitats
Original: In situ enhancement of coral larval settlement using acoustic enrichment, engineered habitats and living materials
Researchers have tested ways to increase coral larval settlement directly on degraded reefs, combining acoustic enrichment, engineered habitat structures and living materials. The approach, published in Nature, aims to help coral larvae attach and survive in place rather than relying solely on nursery-based restoration. It reflects growing interest in active interventions as warming seas continue to damage reef ecosystems worldwide.
Why now: Coral reef decline is accelerating, and new field-tested restoration methods draw wide scientific and environmental attention
