Acropora Pulchra in Coral Nursery in Guam

Caption

A fragment of Acropora pulchra grows on a coral tree in the Piti Coral Ocean Nursery in November 2019. The nursery is one of several created in Guam's waters by the University of Guam and several local agencies in an effort to propagate certain corals that survived mass coral bleaching events from 2013-2017.
