Coral Resilience
COR-Resilience aims to reconstruct, quantify and assess past, present, and future impacts of anthropogenically-driven climate change (ocean acidification and global warming), as well as local stressors (e.g. heavy metals, eutrophication, etc.) on the calcification and growth mechanisms of two of the most important reef-building coral genera.

Overview
The studied corals in this project are Porites and Diploastreas. This is a photo of Porites in the left and a photo of diploastreas at the right.
Climate change poses a grave threat to our planet, and one of its most concerning consequences is the acidification of our oceans, which disrupts marine ecosystems.
The coral coring instrument is utilized underwater to extract cylindrical samples of coral skeletons, providing valuable data for studying climate change and historical environmental conditions.
