Scientific Accountability

We measure survival in centimeters of new coral skeleton per year.

No vague pledges—just divers, local marine biologists, and concrete structures on the seabed tracked across Indonesia and the Philippines.

Restoration Protocol

Four steps from nursery to reef

Fragment Harvesting

Nursery Cultivation

Benthic Monitoring

Permanent Outplanting

Resilient micro-fragments are sustainably harvested from naturally dislodged coral colonies without harming parent reefs.

Fragments are mounted on specialized steel tables in community-managed mid-water nurseries to accelerate calcification rates.

Regular benthic health index surveys record linear extension, skeletal density, and species diversity every quarter.

Mature colonies are securely outplanted onto degraded limestone substrates to rebuild structural complexity.

Empirical Conservation

Every expedition and grant directly finances two square meters of actively monitored ocean nursery.

Research Partners

Validated by science and community leaders

ReefRise provides the rigorous growth tracking and survival metrics our institutional grants require to verify long-term benthic recovery.
