Invasive seaweed removal projects — One example of an attempt at ecosystem restoration is the Maunalua Bay Reef Restoration Project which resulted in the removal of over 3 million pounds of Avrainvillea amadelpha (leather mudweed), an invasive alien alga from coral reef habitat in Maunalua Bay, located in southeast O‘ahu, Hawai‘i. Community volunteers alone removed 91,500 pounds of algae. All invasive alien algae were turned to productive use as a fertilizer on local farms. A Community Monitoring Protocol was established in partnership with The Nature Conservancy scientists to monitor the 27 acres that have been cleared. This project is the first critical step to restoring coral reef and seagrass systems in Maunalua Bay.
