Coral reef - Marine Ecosystem, Formation, Diversity: English naturalist Charles Darwin concluded in 1842 that barrier reefs began as reefs fringing the land around which they now form a barrier and that oceanic atoll reefs began as reefs fringing a volca
oceanographers had begun to intensively study fishing grounds and other localities of economic importance. This research combined studies of marine flora and fauna, ocean currents, water temperature, salinity, and oxygen levels, and other factors in an effort to understand the relationship between mari...
Here we review a decade of research into the micrometeorology of Heron Reef, a lagoonal platform coral reef in the southern Great Barrier Reef, Australia. Using novel pontoon-mounted eddy covariance systems, we show that often >80% of net radiation is partitioned into heating the water ...
While quantitative assessments of structural complexity have become an important topic in reef research over the last two decades (e.g. Bythellet al., 2001, Knudby and LeDrew, 2007), technical limitations have hindered progress in this field. New tools are now available thanks to novel ...
World Ocean Conference.(File photo) The report entitled "The Coral Triangle and Climate Change: Ecosystem, People and Societies at Risk" was compiled from research of 20 of the world's leading coral reef scientists. The WWF proposed nine measures for action which it described as urgent. ...
Recent work has extended our understanding of the variation in coral reef productivity at different spatial and temporal scales. Nutrient limitation of production at scales ranging from the organism to the ecosystem is one of the most important topics of research at present, the relevance of which ...
