Seagrass Restoration

Seagrass restoration involves recovering underwater plants that thrive in shallow marine environments. These plants play a crucial role in coastal ecosystems by providing habitat for fish, improving water quality, and preventing erosion. Restoration efforts typically include planting seagrass seeds or seedlings in areas where it has declined due to pollution, boating, or coastal development. Successful restoration enhances biodiversity, supports fisheries, and helps combat climate change by sequestering carbon. Overall, revitalizing seagrass beds contributes to healthier oceans and resilient coastal communities.
