Bridging Coral Reef Science to Policy with HIMB – Dr. Ruth Gates
While scientific knowledge about coral reefs has increased exponentially over the past few decades, the state of reefs globally has declined at a comparable rate. The 13th International Coral Reef Symposium was held at the Hawaii Convention Center last week with a focus on “Bridging Science to Policy”. Dr. Ruth Gates, honored as the 2015 ARCS Foundation Scientist of the Year, and Islander of the Year for Science by Honolulu Magazine, joins Kaui Lucas to discuss her coral reef protection and recovery activities and the outcomes of the Symposium.
