People once dreamed of living under the sea. Today, we are not only doing it, but also using undersea living as an extraordinary tool to conduct cutting-edge coral reef research, test innovative undersea equipment and tele-robotic surgical instruments, train the next generation of scientists and explorers, and to inspire future generations of seekers and solvers. 

Through the extended bottom time provided by Aquarius, the precious gift of time, marine scientists have begun to find the answers to many questions facing policy makers and managers responsible for the wise use of our national resources. Results address the use of marine reserves as a management tool to conserve coral reef fisheries, understanding coral feeding biology and reproduction, and impacts of elevated seawater temperature on coral biology. 

We are in a pivotal decade for the world's oceans and risk the complete loss of coral reef ecosystems within a generation. Florida International University's Medina Aquarius Reef Base serves as unmatched asset for developing practical solutions...and you can help.
