The properties of ceramic materials as artificial substrate for coral rehabilitation and restoration

Artificial substrate made from ceramic are a non-toxic, pH neutral, and eco-safe material that is ideal for the settlement of corals and other invertebrates. Unlike artificial substrate made from concrete, metal or other discarded materials, ceramic materials delivers many of...
