Slice of PI-CASC seminar
November 12, 12:00pm - 1:00pmMānoa Campus, Hawaii Institute of Geophysics 210
The Pacific Islands Climate Adaptation Science Center presents: "Ecological & socio-cultural response to transplanting corals to enhance reef resilience" with Crawford Drury and Kira Hughes, Coral Resilience Lab, HIMB. Description: This project aims to characterize how coral thermal tolerance is conserved across space and time using a fully-crossed reciprocal transplant. This includes 1) exploring the utility of translocation as a tool to enhance reef resilience and adaptive coastal protection under climate change and 2) determining the sociocultural perspectives to potential human intervention strategies in coral restoration. Dr. Crawford Drury and Kira Hughes will share preliminary results from an ongoing coral transplant between bays and highlight the activities that have strengthened pilina (relationships) with community members.
