Descripción
Sumario:His article describes different technical aspects that should be considered to implement the Coral Tree Nursery asexual reproduction method and monitor its degree of success in working with the recovery of Acropora validacoral populations, present in coral reef areas of the Galapagos Islands. The theoretical context of the development of this method is analyzed, as well as its physical description, the areas of Galapagos in which it could be applied and the ways for monitoring. Finally, we propose some technical analysis for the information related to the survival, growth and transplantation of fragments of coral included in the proposed nurseries
