A Review of Reef Restoration and Coral Propagation Using the Threatened Genus Acropora in the Caribbean and Western Atlantic (2012, background): “Nursery-grown colonies produce a sustainable stock of corals which can then be transplanted to degraded reefs (Rinkevich 1995, 2005, Epstein et al. 2001, 2003, Soong and Chen 2003).”
Coral restoration research and technical developments: what we have learned so far (2019, background): “New branches mostly generate from the cut edge, and the coral becomes round about one year later (Soong and Chen 2003; Higa et al. 2018).”
Regional restoration benchmarks for Acropora cervicornis (2017, background): “The ability of coral propagation and restoration programs to create renewable sources of corals for use in restoration using low-cost, science-based methods has been well documented (Soong and Chen 2003; Lirman et al. 2010, 2014a; Rinkevich 2014).”
Rebuilding coral reefs: does active reef restoration lead to sustainable reefs? (2014, background): “List of coral species farmed in coral nurseries worldwide ([13,14,18–23,24 ,37–51], unpublished).”
Steps in the construction of underwater coral nursery, an essential component in reef restoration acts (2006, background): “2001) and the concept of ‘‘coral gardening’’ by means of underwater nurseries (Rinkevich 1995, 2000, 2005; Shafir et al. 2001; Sabater and Yap 2002; Fox et al. 2003; Soong and Chen 2003).”
Degradation and restoration of coral reefs: Experience in Okinawa, Japan (2011, background): “A number of studies have been carried out to discover the best way to increase survival and growth rates of transplanted corals (cf. Epstein et al. 2001; Soong & Chen 2003; Okubo 2004; Rinkevich 2005; Okubo et al. 2007).”
