Corals are the building blocks of reef environments and provide homes and food for many different fish, invertebrates, and humans. In fact, while coral reefs make up less than 1% of the marine environment, about 25% of all marine species live within them. These valuable ecosystems are threatened by global warming, ocean acidification, marine debris, and more.
This program covers coral diversity, the importance of corals, and the reef habitats they build. Students will learn about coral anatomy and learn important ongoing research. Discussions focus on the issues facing coral today and the ways that we can help to protect these incredible animals.
Registration is required. If you register, please attend. If you're unable to attend, please cancel your reservation so as many people as possible get to enjoy our free activities.
