The coral reefs of Australia contribute over $6 bn each year to the economy. However, the reefs of Australia, in addition to those worldwide, are threatened by coral bleaching driven by anthropogenic climate change. If we are to preserve the economic, social and ecosystem value of these environments, it is essential that we are able to better manage the recovery of reefs from bleaching events. This project will utilise a variety of multi-disciplinary approaches, ranging from future climate models, historical satellite data to in-field experimentation to fill fundamental knowledge gaps in our understanding of coral bleaching recovery and delivery a variety of management and stakeholder relevant outputs.

澳大利亚的珊瑚礁每年为经济贡献超过 60 亿美元。然而，除了世界各地的珊瑚礁外，澳大利亚的珊瑚礁也受到人为气候变化导致的珊瑚白化的威胁。如果我们要保护这些环境的经济、社会和生态系统价值，就必须能够更好地管理珊瑚礁从白化事件中的恢复。该项目将利用各种多学科方法，从未来气候模型、历史卫星数据到现场实验，以填补我们对珊瑚白化恢复理解的基本知识空白，并提供各种管理和利益相关者相关的产出。
