Americanreef - Keeping Saltwater and Coral Reef Aquariums by Learning from Advanced Aquarists show

Summary: American Reef returns to Reef Systems Coral Farms, a collaborator in an important study of how both global warming and increasing ocean acidity affect coral life. Researchers from Ohio State University, the University of Delaware, and the University of Georgia plan to identify corals resilient to these stressful conditions, as well as pinpoint factors that could fortify resiliency. Known as the 4Coral Research Group, these scientists hope the results of their experiment can be used by conservationists to focus their preservation efforts. Part 2 of a 2 part series.
