Welcome to the Coral Reef Digest

<img class="floatright" src="IMG_1068.JPG" height="216" width="288" /> This is a project of the | ENST259 Coral Reef Ecology and Management at UNC - Chapel Hill (ENST259) class. It is meant to be a semi-comprehensive resource for learning about corals, coral reefs, the threats corals face, the role and importance reefs play in the world, and management of reefs and reef-related environments.

Each year's ENST259 class will build upon the material from previous years. Students will select topics of interest from a list of topics provided by previous years' students that require more research, or students can introduce new topics. After a semester of research, current students will synthesize their research and add that content to this wiki.

If you have any questions about this wiki or topics you'd like to see added, please email Brian Naess at naess@unc.edu.
