Exploring the Timing, Patterns, and Mysteries of Coral Spawning

Coral spawning sustains reef ecosystems, yet its timing and patterns remain poorly studied in Terengganu. At Coralku, we investigate these reproductive events to advance scientific knowledge and inform effective reef restoration strategies

Fecundity and Reproductive Investment of Heat Tolerant Corals

To ensure maximum restoration outcomes, we study how heat tolerant corals innvest in the next generation.

From Selection to Survival: Breeding Corals for the Future

With our baseline on coral spawning we are hoping to launch Malaysia's first selective breeding program. By selectively breeding corals with higher tolerance to heat stress, we want to explore how naturally occurring heat tolerant corals can be bred to boost reef survival.
