For the first time, scientists have observed bleached corals on the brink of death fully recover through brief contact with healthy clones.
AI Summary
Scientists observed that bleached corals on the brink of death can fully recover after brief contact with healthy clones. In laboratory experiments, ghostly white corals returned to full health within seven weeks, marking the fastest documented recovery. The results were reported in Science Advances. Researchers suggest the findings could guide the development of rapid restoration techniques for reefs threatened by climate‑driven marine heat waves.
