Scientists discover healthy corals can help dying corals recover | The Moment

Stanford University scientists Steve Palumbi and Danny Collins have made a breakthrough discovery that healthy corals can aid in the recovery of dying corals when they come into direct contact, according to an interview on CBC's The National. This finding could offer new hope for coral reef conservation efforts globally, as it suggests that areas with surviving coral populations might serve as natural sanctuaries or recovery sites for damaged reefs. The discovery highlights a potential method to combat the widespread decline of coral ecosystems due to climate change and other stressors.
