Zusammenfassung: | A method for repairing a broken coral reef area of a reef body and a coral splicing platform, relating to the technical field of ecological engineering tools. The method comprises: placing the coral splicing platform in a selected degraded area, wherein the coral splicing platform comprises a main splicing platform which is in the shape of the Chinese character "井", and which is arranged at the top, and supporting legs, which are fixed to a lower portion of the main splicing platform and are inserted into the seabed; and binding transplanted corals to preset attachment sites on the main splicing platform, such that corals can establish a three-dimensional structure. The method utilizes the coral splicing platform to effectively increase the coverage rate of living corals in a degraded reef area, promote the recovery of a coral reef ecosystem, and effectively reduce the effect from resuspension of sediments on the corals. Compared with other engineering repair means, the coral splicing platform used in the method has a lower repair cost per unit area, and is portable and easy to transport and carry; and the coral splicing platform can be reliably fixed to the seabed, and has a good in-situ repair effect, and the transplanted corals have a high survival rate and growth rate. |
