Researchers from the Australian Institute of Marine Science (AIMS) are partnering with Traditional Owners and Indigenous Rangers in a new project which aims to expand the delivery of coral larval restoration interventions to the Great Barrier Reef.
As the ocean warms under climate change, a better understanding of how damaging marine heatwaves develop and last may help scientists predict them more accurately and forecast their impacts on marine ecosystems.
New data from the Australian Institute of Marine Science’s (AIMS) in-water surveys show coral cover has declined on 12 of 19 reefs surveyed between Lizard Island and Cardwell following a summer of disturb
New research led by the Australian Institute of Marine Science (AIMS) in collaboration with Deakin University and ORCAS Consulting found offshore oil and gas infrastructure plays a minor role in maintaining regional populations of marine life in north-west and south-east Australia.
Scientists at the Australian Institute of Marine Science (AIMS) are currently preparing for the annual ‘mass’ spawning of Great Barrier Reef corals – an important time of reproduction and rejuvenation on the Reef.
