Scientists Outplant Experimental ‘Flonduran’ Corals in Florida’s Dry Tortugas National Park
Researchers are experimenting with cross-breeding elkhorn corals from Florida and Honduras in an effort to restore genetic diversity. This initiative takes place in Florida's Dry Tortugas National Park, where the corals are being outplanted. The goal is to enhance the species' resilience to rising water temperatures.
