Deepwater corals provide habitat for diverse and abundant invertebrate and fish communities, including refuge and prey for commercially valuable fisheries. These extremely slow-growing communities are becoming increasingly vulnerable to anthropogenic threats from increased ocean temperatures, fishing activities, and oil and gas exploration. Understanding how deepwater corals are genetically connected is critical to their conservation and restoration. This collaborative effort will enhance the understanding of Gulf of Mexico coral ecosystems with concrete restoration and conservation initiatives to ensure recovery of degraded deepwater coral communities. The information gained from this project will aid in decision-making regarding establishment of Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) by the Gulf of Mexico Fishery Management Council. This project is led by the Lehigh University in partnership with Harvey Mudd College, the Georgia Institute of Technology, and NOAA. This project is funded by the NOAA RESTORE Science Program under award NA17NOS4510096 to Lehigh University. underDevelopment NCCOS Scientific Data Coordinator NCCOS.data@noaa.gov Frank Parker, NOAA RESTORE Science Program, frank.parker@noaa.gov pointOfContact NCCOS Scientific Data Coordinator NCCOS.data@noaa.gov custodian https://cdn.coastalscience.noaa.gov/restore/restore_tagbottom.png RESTORE Science Program Logo EARTH SCIENCE EARTH SCIENCE > BIOSPHERE > ECOSYSTEMS > MARINE ECOSYSTEMS > REEF theme Global Change Master Directory (GCMD) Science Keywords 17.0 EARTH SCIENCE SERVICES > MODELS > DYNAMIC VEGETATION/ECOSYSTEM MODELS service Global Change Master Directory (GCMD) Service Keywords 17.0 OCEAN > ATLANTIC OCEAN > NORTH ATLANTIC OCEAN > GULF OF AMERICA place Global Change Master Directory (GCMD) Location Keywords 20.8 NCCOS Research Data Type > Field Observation NCCOS Research Data Type > Model NCCOS Sponsored Research > RESTORE Science Program NCCOS Research Location > Region > Gulf of Mexico theme NCCOS Keywords Gulf of Mexico place DOC/NOAA/NOS/NCCOS > National Centers for Coastal Ocean Science, National Ocean Service, NOAA, U.S. Department of Commerce dataCentre Global Change Master Directory (GCMD) Data Center Keywords 2017-04-24 publication 8.5 Earth Science Data and Information System, Earth Science Projects Division, Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC), National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) https://forum.earthdata.nasa.gov/app.php/tag/GCMD%2BKeywords GCMD Keyword Forum Page Global Change Master Directory (GCMD). 2025.

This project will focus on four species of mesophotic and deepwater corals that were directly impacted by the DWH Oil Spill. The project aims to help guide management decisions by addressing crucial gaps in the understanding of the processes that influence population connectivity patterns of habitat-forming deepwater and mesophotic corals. The team will achieve this by combining field sampling, population genomic analyses, and physical oceanographic modeling to 1) define spatial scales of coral populations, 2) infer directionality and relative rate of genetic exchange among the coral populations, and 3) integrate predictive models of larval dispersal with genetic data to estimate dispersal distances and connectivity patterns.
