Accelerated degradation of coral formations, especially shallow water species, such as A. cervicornis, has caused great concern, leading to the implementation of different active measures to recover this ecosystem. This study evaluated the efficiency of a vertical tree nursery model with A. cervicornis fragments in San Martín de Pajarales Island (Oceanario, Center for Research, Education and Recreation [ceiner], Corales del Rosario and San Bernardo National Park [pnncr y sb, in Spanish], Colombia), where 10 vertical nurseries were installed (5 morfotypes). A total of 12 fragments from each morfotype were studied, determining their growth (linear and ecological volume), survival and health status. Morfotypes evaluated behaved similarly in bo...
