Why? The Foundation strives to increase ocean literacy by creating awareness about coral reefs. They harbor nearly 25% of all marine species. Reefs also provide a food supply and livelihood for millions of people around the world.
This award-winning coral reef ecology curriculum has been developed in accordance with the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS), the Ocean Literacy Principles (OLP), and the Common Core State Standards (CCSS). It is aimed towards high school students, but can be adapted for other age groups.
Explore fourteen custom designed units on topics that can be integrated into a variety of courses such as art, biology, chemistry, environmental and marine science, and physics, while adhering to course standards. We are continuing to develop the curriculum and will add new units (a total of 23) and lesson plans as they are completed. Future content includes the following topics:
Monitor student progress. Access teacher resource pages for free downloadable lesson plans with answer keys. Search for lesson plans by national standards, access master vocabulary list, and monitor student progress.
Take quizzes and keep track of your progress. Collect badges for each unit and personalize your dashboard. NOTE: Students who do not want to link to a teacher's class should register as a Guest and under User Type, click "Other" then write in "student".

The Coral Reef Conservation Program is a partnership between the NOAA Line Offices that work on coral reef issues. We bring together expertise from across NOAA for a multidisciplinary approach to understanding and conserving coral reef ecosystems.
Meet the Coral Program Story Map: Established in 2000, NOAA's Coral Program is a matrixed program across NOAA Line Offices. We use a resilience-based management approach, focused on conservation that supports the ability of corals to withstand and recover from stress. This story map teaches you all about our work from the view of our people - so come along and meet the Coral Program! Focal areas of the Program include climate change, land-based sources of pollution, unsustainable fishing practices, disease, and coral restoration.
Spotlight on Corals: Our 2023 featured story archive highlights some of the Program's accomplishments over the past year. The Coral Reef Conservation Program brings together expertise from across NOAA for a multidisciplinary approach to studying the complex coral ecosystems to inform more effective management. Collaboration is critical to coral reef conservation and we work closely with NOAA scientists in the National Ocean Service, National Marine Fisheries Service, Office of Oceanic and Atmospheric Research, and National Environmental Satellite, Data and Information Service.
Stony Coral Tissue Loss Disease: Atlantic-Caribbean coral reef ecosystems are in the midst of an unprecedented outbreak of stony coral tissue loss disease (SCTLD). Characterized by rapid spread, rapid tissue loss, and high mortality rates, SCTLD has affected corals along the entirety of Florida's Coral Reef and in 22 Caribbean countries and territories, including the U.S. Virgin Islands and Puerto Rico and the Flower Garden Banks in the Gulf of Mexico. This page provides NOAA's strategy on addressing SCTLD, including prevention, preparedness, and response plans.
The NOAA Coral Reef Conservation Program was established in 2000 by the Coral Reef Conservation Act. Headquartered in Silver Spring, Maryland, the program is part of NOAA's Office for Coastal Management.
There is no reservation or timed-entry ticket needed to enter Capitol Reef National Park. The park is busy in spring through fall and it can be difficult to find parking at popular trailheads. Plan ahead and be flexible.
Certain activities at Capitol Reef National Park require you to obtain a permit or reservation prior to your visit. Information and applications are available by clicking on the links below.
The Special Use Permit (SUP) authorizes activities that benefit an individual, group or organization, rather than the public at large. Examples of activities that require a special use permit include (but are not limited to): trips organized by scouting groups, churches, academic institutions, or other non-profits, filming and photography, weddings, and first amendment activities. This requires written authorization and management control in order to protect park resources and the public interest. Permit applications must be submitted three weeks in advance.
Tour operators who engage in interpretive tours, bicycle tours, motorcycle tours, photography workshops, and certain other commercial services are required to obtain a CUA prior to visiting Capitol Reef National Park.
A backcountry permit is required for backpacking in Capitol Reef National Park. The permit is free and can be obtained in person at the visitor center during normal business hours. Backcountry permits cannot be obtained via email.
All canyoneering groups are required to obtain a free day-use permit in person at the visitor center, or online via email.

During this museum educator-led program, students explore how Smithsonian scientists measure the biodiversity of coral reefs using nondestructive methods. They will model the same scientific processes used by our scientists by observing and analyzing images of plates with the actual organisms that live in the Autonomous Reef Monitoring Structures (ARMS) to better understand human impact on coral reefs. Based upon their observations students develop, test, and refine explanations and potential recommendations for protecting and preserving coral reefs. In-person programs take place at the museum in Washington, D.C.
During this museum educator-led program, students explore biodiversity on a coral reef using the same methods as Smithsonian scientists. Students will practice science skills of observing, classifying, and quantifying organisms living on coral reefs using real data collected by field scientists with Autonomous Reef Monitoring Structures (ARMS). They will use their observations to understand how biodiversity is related to ecosystem resilience, and how humans are impacting these vital ocean habitats.
Designed to accommodate classes, grades, or groups with 15 to 500 students. Students will not be visible to the museum educator or other students, but they will be able to submit questions in writing through the Q&A, and interact through polls.
Designed to accommodate classes of 15 to 35 students. Students will be visible to the museum educator and their classmates, and will have the ability to raise their hand to ask and answer questions.
