Enhancing coral reef resilience to climate change

珊瑚礁为澳大利亚及其邻国提供了巨大的经济、文化和环境效益。面对气候变化和其他压力，珊瑚礁要保持健康，就必须采用最佳做法进行管理。测量珊瑚礁种群之间的联系，并开发新的工具，将这些知识转化为改进的管理，可以促进渔业，确保珊瑚礁健康，并保护珊瑚礁维持的生计。这项与来自欧洲、美利坚合众国、巴布亚新几内亚和印度尼西亚的合作伙伴进行的研究使澳大利亚处于应对气候变化影响的前沿，并提高了其作为珊瑚礁科学和管理的世界领导者的国际声誉。

Coral reefs provide enormous economic, cultural and environmental benefits to Australia and its near neighbours. For reefs to remain healthy in the face of climate change and other stresses, they must be managed using best practices. Measuring how reef populations are connected and developing new tools to translate this knowledge into improved management can enhance fisheries, ensure reef health, and protect the livelihoods that reefs sustain. This research with partners from Europe, the United States of America, Papua New Guinea and Indonesia places Australia at the forefront of addressing the impacts of climate change and enhances its international reputation as the world leader in coral reef science and management.
