The New Heaven Reef Conservation Program (NHRCP) uses HOBO Pendant data loggers as part of its work to actively restore the coral reefs around the island of Koh Tao.

Since its beginning more than 22 years ago, marine conservation has been at the heart of the New Heaven Dive School. Located on the island of Koh Tao off the eastern coast of Thailand, in 2007 the school founded the New Heaven Reef Conservation Program (NHRCP).

The program is dedicated to researching, providing education about, and actively restoring the coral reefs around the island of Koh Tao. Monitoring and understanding the temperature-driven phenomenon of coral bleaching is crucial to the work of the NHRCP coral reef conservationists.
