The Coral City Camera project, initiated by marine biologist Colin Foord, streams live footage of coral reefs in Biscayne Bay, revealing the unique resilience of nearly 20 coral species in an urban environment. Over five years, this YouTube livestream has garnered over 3.7 million views, aiding scientific understanding and public awareness. Despite being near a busy port, the corals thrive, supported by structures that mimic natural habitats, fostering a rare glimpse into the vibrant marine ecosystem amid urban activity.
"We've got close to 20 different species of stony corals living in one of the busiest ports in the entire world."
"You can see, the water is really gorgeous. It's turquoise blue. And we're standing on this limestone rip rap."
