Con Dao waters are listed as "priority areas are the highest protection" in the system of marine protected areas by the World Bank. According to the Institute of Oceanography and Hai Phong Nha Trang, the waters of Con Dao wealth of density and abundance of most species in Vietnam, many reefs are highly primitive nature, the survey recent marine life of the world's leading experts on the subjects always find new species to the world and Vietnam.
However, during the past evolution of biodiversity always change up to the incident from natural such as: - The impact of Hurricane Linda in November 1997, work on the third area thousands of hectares of forest and sea area affected, some reefs are destroyed completely after the storm. - The phenomenon of coral bleaching due to sea temperature rise abruptly from the El Nino phenomenon in April 8-9 1998 (Vo Sy Tuan, 1998). - The phenomenon of reduced salinity of sea water and in the mid of October 2005.
It is the breakdown of the natural environment, has made the sea biodiversity Con Dao serious decline and prevent self-healing progress of many marine ecosystems. Besides the pressure of fishing has led to diminishing sources such as screws her breasts; the giant clams (stone buildings); lobster; the groupers and other fish species live in the reef ... Also some fishermen in the local and international still fishing with poisons such as Cyanide; reef break to exploit object cochlea.
To address the above, in order to minimize the degradation of coral reefs as natural resilience of them is limited, Management Con Dao National Park and the Marine Conservation Project was carried Con Dao the "culture experiments recovery and development of coral reefs in Con Dao" with the aim to minimize adverse impacts on the reef, the reef rehabilitation to increase the coverage of coral, part price increases stick coral sustainable revitalization and create a stable environment for the development of communities of organisms other than coral reefs.
The objective of the recovery culture and reef development in Con Dao is:
+ Recovery artificially cultured corals in the reef sites are unlikely to restore the status quo as before;
+ Experimental and selection methods coral recovery efficiency for Con Dao Sea and adjacent waters other.
+ To raise community awareness of the management contract, effective use and restoration of marine resources;
+ Create a site ecotourism coral diving watch.
Location recover from the north coast to the northern beaches He Fishing Bay canister Con Son Island. Proceed coral restoration in 15 locations with the recovery area and coral growth is 40ha (total area of cultured coral restoration is 8 ha).
Implementation period from March to June 2009
