AbstractEffective conservation of degraded ecosystems requires mitigation of the original cause of decline, but this step can be difficult in the context of global climate change. On coral reefs, persistent environmental stress which causes coral bleaching may be addressed by using coral restoration stock which is naturally more resilient, often termed "proactive restoration" in terrestrial management.
