![]() ![]() Conservation science plays a critical role in designing effective strategies. Despite growing threats, it is not too late for decisive action to protect and save these economically and ecologically high-value ecosystems. Thus, no conflict between development, societal welfare, and coral-reef conservation needs to exist. ![]() Coral reefs create an annual income in S-Florida alone of over $4 billion. Local communities often support coral-reef conservation in order to raise income potential associated with tourism and/or improved resource levels. When effectively managed, protected areas have contributed to regeneration of coral reefs and stocks of associated marine resources. Nevertheless, many examples of successful conservation exist from the national level to community-enforced local action. Societal priorites, economic pressures, and legal/administrative systems of many countries are more prone to destroy rather than conserve coral-reef ecosystems. Conservation science of coral reefs is well advanced, but its practical application has often been lagging. Already ∼20% of the world's reefs are lost and ∼26% are under imminent threat. On more local scales, overfishing and destructive fisheries, coastal construction, nutrient enrichment, increased runoff and sedimentation, and the introduction of nonindigenous invasive species have caused phase shifts away from corals. Anthropogenic modification of chemical and physical atmospheric dynamics that cause coral death by bleaching and newly emergent diseases due to increased heat and irradiation, as well as decline in calcification caused by ocean acidification due to increased CO 2, are the most important large-scale threats.
