Coral restoration information sought

[John Naughton]

Gene:

I recently co-authored two papers with Paul Jokiel (U. of Hawaii)
summarizing coral reef mitigation and restoration techniques employeed in
the Pacific Islands.  We presented them at the Oceans 2001 Conference in
November.  Send me your fax number and
I'll send copies.  They should provide much of the info you're looking for.
