Description:

This tech memo reports on the results of multiple analyses conducted by the Data Inventory and Analysis (DIA) team during the first year of the Coral Propagation Techniques Development (CPT) Project. Two prioritization exercises were conducted: a literature review for coral species prioritization and a genetic status of knowledge assessment. A team of 10 subject-matter experts (SMEs) reviewed the information and provided feedback during a two-hour focus group meeting held virtually in December of 2021. Key points discussed during the meeting and a summary of post-meeting SME feedback are also reported here.
