And the bad news - got the debrief on the status of our 500+ Acropora cervicornis outplants in the Dry Tortugas. They are all dead or nearly dead. One of the best acroporid sites coral cover wise along the Florida Keys reef tract is now a wasteland. There are no words.

@DrCarlsHorn @USC Love this. Congrats!!!!
