Great Barrier ReefSalinity tolerances of reef corals have been experimentally investigated since the early twentieth century. Yet, nearly 100years later, we are no closer to having a threshold that can be applied in studies of the impacts of freshwater runoff on coral communities. We present an ...
Savenije and Pagès, 1992, Kantoussan et al., 2012), the Great Barrier Reef (e.g Andutta et al., 2011) and even temperate regions such as North America (e.g Largier, 2010, Schlenk and Lavado, 2011) and the Mediterranean (e.g. Largier et al., 1997). Common to many hypersaline...
What is average sea level pressure in inches of Hg? What is the average temperature in the marine biome? What is the temperature at sea level? What is the average rainfall in the Great Barrier Reef? How deep is the ocean thermocline?
A 420-year history of strontium/calcium, uranium/calcium, and oxygen isotope ratios in eight coral cores from the Great Barrier Reef, Australia, indicates that sea surface temperature and salinity were higher in the 18th century than in the 20th century. An abrupt freshening after 1870 occurred ...
Atlantic coasts, as well as in the Australian Great Barrier reef waters have been mapped successfully using the SLFMR data acquired during several airborne campaigns (Robinson, 1994; Le Vine et al., 1998; Miller et al., 1998; Burrage et al., 2003; Miller and Goodberlet, 2004; Perez et...
Currents and Water Properties in the North-central Great Barrier Reef during the South-east Trade Wind Season The relatively low salinity, cool water in the lagoon is believed to have come from farther south and to have been diluted en route by river runoff... GR Cresswell,MA Greig - 《Mar...

What ocean is the Great Barrier Reef in? What percentage of the hydrosphere is salt water? What are abiotic factors in the ocean? What is the temperature at the bottom of the ocean? What is the largest ocean current? Which ocean zone is most habitable?
Exposure of coral reefs to river plumes carrying increasing loads of nutrients and sediments is a pressing issue for coral reefs around the world including the Great Barrier Reef (GBR). Laboratory experiments were conducted to investigate the effects of changes in inorganic nutrients (nitrate, ...
