When the NOAA-led, partner-driven Mission: Iconic Reefs restoration effort was initiated in 2019 to combat the decline of the regionʼs coral reef ecosystem, multiple industry experts with decades of collective experience and research partnered to support the project.
The network includes world-renowned scientists, local restoration partners, federal and state agencies, business allies, friendsʼ groups, and volunteers who work across multiple disciplines utilizing the most recent, cutting-edge science and state-of-the-art restoration techniques to facilitate and reinforce ecosystem recovery and resilience. Without the genius and dedication of the partners, successful large-scale restoration would not be possible.
