What management actions are needed to improve water quality and reduce pollution threats to corals?
Participants spoke on a range of topics, including such watershed problems as slope failure, invasive species, feral ungulates, and pollution; the effects of these problems on the coral reef; issues for future study; and possible management paths. A collection of abstracts from the workshop will soon be published as a USGS Open-File Report.
