Abstract

Researchers of the National Institute of Oceanography (NIO) in Goa have artificially repopulated corals in the Lakshadweep islands. Three years ago, the scientists started experimenting to develop a cost effective method to regrow corals. About 60 per cent of them had died in 1998 in the islands. After trying different substrates including natural rocks, the researchers zeroed in on cement slabs.
