Answer

Can Posidonia meadows recover on Mallorca after damage?

Yes, recovery is possible, but it takes time and careful work. In the Bay of Pollença, a replanting project restored Posidonia on two hectares, and the survival rate after six years was over 80 percent. That suggests regeneration can work when science, planning and local involvement come together.
