Substrate nan règleman konstitye tou de yon 'machin' delivre koray ti bebe nan yon resif ak tou abita inisyal la nan koray la. Se konsa, li sèvi tou de yon jeni ak fonksyon ekolojik, ak gwo pwogrè nan efikasite koray restorasyon ta ka pran pa amelyore desen yo nan substrats. Sa a se yon aspè fokal nan rechèch restorasyon pa SECORE, vise amelyore konsepsyon substrate an tèm de efikasite nan manyen, deplwaman sou resif, ak ankouraje pi bon post-règleman sivivoran. SECORE pataje teknoloji sa a ak òganizasyon ki kalifye; kontakte yo pou plis enfòmasyon.

The settlement substrate constitutes both a ‘vehicle’ to deliver baby corals to a reef as well as the initial habitat of the coral. Thus, it serves both an engineering and ecological function, and great advances in coral restoration efficiency could be gained by improving the designs of substrates. This is a focal aspect of restoration research by SECORE, aiming to improve substrate design in terms of efficiency of handling, deployment onto reefs, and fostering better post-settlement survivorship. SECORE shares this technology with qualifying organizations; contact them for further information.
