Another place doing some important research is KAUST above Jeddah on the Red Sea. They are working with one of the Barrier Reef photogrammetry capture programs to monitor coral and doing replacement testing etc due to higher average water temps so a coral evolved to withstand Red Sea summer might be a fit for the more recently hotter QLD water. I hope something like this works one of the most amazing things I have ever seen was a spawning event years ago. Coral is the canary in the coal mine of Climate Change and if we can't help them adapt then I am afraid we might not be able to either.
