Concrete evidence: outplanted corals for reef restoration do not need extended curing of ordinary Portland cement
Artificial reefs for coral reef restoration are often concrete-based. After concrete is poured, it initially has a high surface pH (approx. 13), which neutralizes within several weeks. During this curing, colonization by marine microalgae is delayed and also macrobenthos such as corals may be impact...
