Coral-List found a new home in 2024 with at the International Coral Reef Society (ICRS), after beginning its life in 1995 at NOAA’s Atlantic Oceanographic and Meteorological Laboratory (AOML), where it was guided by the NOAA Coral Reef Conservation Program’s strategy for coral reef conservation. The ICRS deeply thanks Jim Hendee, Mike Jankulak, and all of AOML’s Ocean Chemistry and Ecosystems Division.

The purpose of Coral-List is to provide a forum for Internet discussions and announcements among coral health researchers pertaining to coral reef ecosystem research, conservation, and education. The list is primarily for use by coral reef ecosystem researchers, scientists and educators, but is open to everybody. As of June 2024 over 9,600 coral reef conservationists and concerned citizens were subscribed to the list.

 

Appropriate coral reef ecosystem-related subjects for discussion might include:

  • land-based sources of pollution
  • climate change
  • over-fishing
  • inter-governmental research and conservation efforts
  • socioeconomics
  • outreach and educational programs
  • high predation on coral reefs
  • coral bleaching events and research
  • outbreaks of diseases affecting coral reef organisms
  • environmental monitoring sites
  • incidences of reproduction by coral reef organisms
  • shipwrecks on coral reefs and their effects
  • international meetings and symposia
  • funding opportunities
  • marine sanctuary research and news
  • new coral reef-related publications and reports
  • announcements of coral reef science courses and field trips
  • research and conservation initiatives and opportunities
  • new and historical data availability
  • coral reef ecosystem modeling topics
  • controversial topics in coral reef ecology
