This grant is for conducting critical research at the Palmyra Atoll National Wildlife Refuge, focusing on the invasive corallimorph. The primary purpose is to investigate key aspects of this species, including its patterns of spread and its growth rates within the atoll’s ecosystem. Additionally, the research will explore the corallimorph’s physiological response to iron, an important environmental factor. A significant component of the study involves evaluating the recolonization dynamics of the corallimorph following its removal, specifically using chemical control strategies. This comprehensive research aims to provide vital insights into managing and mitigating the impact of this highly invasive species on the delicate marine environment of Palmyra Atoll, contributing to effective conservation efforts.
