摘要

Coral bleaching has emerged as an outright menace for the coral reefs right through their global distribution range. Despite being rated among the highly diverse biological ecosystems on the earth, coral reefs are deteriorating at an alarming rate due to severe intensification of multiple natural and human-induced disturbances, especially in the tropical oceans and coastlines. The Andaman Islands in India are not an exception to this peril. A dearth of adequate scientific data and poor management has led to large-scale bleaching and extirpation of coral populations in the Andamans. As the regular episodes of coral bleaching and mortality are hampering an array of critical ecosystem services, conservation of coral reefs becomes a prime imperative. This paper discusses the vulnerable status of coral populations in some of the important Andaman Islands, their diversity and inadequacy of the various management strategies being implemented. Some realistic conservation strategies novel to India and several developing countries of the world are also proposed. These ideas lay the foundation for a conservation paradigm considering both the changing biodiversity maintained by natural processes and rapid alterations brought about by humans. Major as well as subtle modifications in the existing programs and formulation of an integrated pattern applied for reef conservation can prove to be substantial.
