In addition to conducting groundbreaking research, we will provide the nation's leading students with unique opportunities to gain knowledge and develop skills necessary for a career in marine science. We hope our work will raise their awareness of the importance of coral reefs and threats to the long-term survival of the rainforests of the sea. |
This will be some of the most advanced coral reef environment research, with the fastest turnaround and major international impact, to date. Our findings will guide future international policy on coral reef protection and Marine Protected Areas management. |
