Study finds coral reef sounds boost healthy coral larvae growth and settlement, aiding reef restoration.
A study by the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution found that the sounds of healthy coral reefs can enhance the growth and settlement of coral larvae, specifically the golfball coral species.
Exposing larvae to these sounds increased their settlement rates within the first 36 hours.
This "acoustic enrichment" technique could aid in restoring degraded coral reef ecosystems, which have suffered significant losses due to human activities and climate change.
