    211119-N-N1809-001 Vieques, Puerto Rico (Nov. 19, 2021) On a “Coral Ark” deployed in offshore waters, coral sit on limestone tiles which attach to the ark frame. Over the past nine months, Naval Information Warfare Center (NIWC) Pacific scientists have demonstrated that translocated coral living on the ark housing structures survive 38% more than control group coral translocated with traditional methods.
