Located on the breathtaking Nacula island, the world’s first Sculptural Coral Gene Bank from Counting Coral. Rare and resilient corals from 8 neighboring reefs were planted in the hopes to preserve the biodiversity and genetic diversity of Nacula Island's coral reefs, creating new habitats for marine life, easing pressure on natural reefs by redirecting tourists and divers.

The mission of the ARC Centre of Excellence for Coral Reef Studies was to provide knowledge that fostered the sustainable use, adaptive governance and effective management of the world's coral reefs to enhance human wellbeing. We achieved this through innovative, collaborative and transdisciplinary research that achieved a better understanding of the science, both social and natural, of the dynamic changes currently occurring on coral reefs worldwide; and built coalitions to communicate and implement scientific recommendations.

The ARC Centre of Excellence for Coral Reef Studies commenced operations in 2005 with the award of $23 million from the Australian Research Council (ARC) Centres of Excellence program. In 2014, the Australian Research Council awarded the Centre an additional $28 million to continue its world-best integrated research for sustainable use and management of coral reefs. The Centre cemented Australia's leading contribution to coral reef sciences, and fostered stronger collaborative links between the major partners and 100s of institutions across the world. Collectively, the Centre created the world's largest concentration of coral reef scientists. It ceased operations in late 2022.

AIMS' extensive monitoring and discovery research supports marine environmental reporting and decision-making by government, industry and other stakeholders. We monitor coral reefs, water quality, weather and ocean conditions across Australia's tropical waters.

Since 1983, we have operated the longest, most comprehensive Great Barrier Reef monitoring program, documenting the condition and trends of reefs in the World Heritage area. In Western Australia, we have monitored the north west's remote reefs since 1994. This program helps us to understand the natural variability of these isolated fish and coral communities, and their resilience to disturbances such as cyclones.

Much of Australia's marine estate remains unexplored. Our research reveals communities in isolated regions with the combined use of surveys and spatial modelling.

Our monitoring and discovery research reveals the unknown, sets baselines and reports changes and trends for management evaluation.
