Researchers used Earth -orbiting satellites to map coral reef biodiversity at a global scale to show that areas of high habitat diversity also have high species diversity.

This new satellite mapping technique can help guide future efforts to identify and protect highly biodiverse reefs.

The conventional approach of conducting SCUBA-diver surveys to measure coral reefs is both time consuming and expensive.
