Our Resources
The Monitoring Working Group has produced numerous resources over the years. Some of the most used include,
This Monitoring Guide should be used to measure and describe the progress of coral restoration projects towards meeting restoration goals. The CRC Monitoring Working Group has also developed a Coral Restoration Database and Evaluation Tool to be complementary to this Guide and used together.
The Monitoring Working Group also aims to host two webinars per year, focusing on hot topics, live Q&A's with experts, and more.
