Scientists are using underwater speakers to help restore degraded coral reefs. The sounds of a healthy reef could be used to encourage coral larvae to recolonize damaged or degraded reefs, according to a study published in the journal Royal Society Open Science on Tuesday. Underwater speakers that play the sounds of a healthy reef, such as fish calls, were found to help coral larvae settle at rates up to seven times higher. Corals rely on rich soundscapes to thrive, researchers have discovered. Video |
