With support from NFWF National Coastal Resilience Fund, a strategic Florida Keys Coral Disease Response & Restoration initiative will be implemented through a consortium of coral research & restoration institutions led by Mote - an independent non-governmental non-profit research institution having 1) demonstrated experience & expertise in developing innovative coral restoration technologies, 2) significant coral research & restoration infrastructure & activities in the Florida Keys, 3) close coordination with federal & state agencies, as well as consortium partners, and 4) significant local community engagement & outreach. Over 3 years, the initiative will: 1) plant ~ 70,000 “seedlings” of diverse endemic coral species genotypes that have scientifically demonstrated resiliency for increased temperatures, decreased pH and/or coral disease; 2) conduct necessary research for identification of genetic resilience of endemic coral species & targeted cross-propagation of resilient genotypes, as well as resiliency mechanisms; 3) establish & maintain quality control of life-support systems a remote inland-based & secure living coral gene bank in recirculating sea water infrastructure to ensure the long-term viability & persistence of threatened coral species and genetic diversity; 4) establishing a coral disease research isolated “clean room” laboratory; and 5) implement multi-year monitoring & analyses to scientifically evaluate ecological impacts & benefits of restoration. This dataset includes Mote Marine Laboratory's outplanting and monitoring deliverables 2019 - 2020.
