This research used belt transect method which consist of 18 transects in three location (harbour,near the forest and transition areas)at 50-80 m from the coast, with plot size of 2x2m2. Abundance of coral reefs were observed base on the coverage. There are found 11 families of coral ...

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To widely restore a sea area where coral reef declines such as the whitening of coral groups and the death of corals are caused. SOLUTION: This structure 1 for forming coral reefs supports a coral-rooting bed 11 as a cathode, and an anode 10 having a lower natural...
1Coral reefs are formed(形成) by tiny animals called polyps(珊瑚虫). The reef structure provides a home for thousands of other forms of ocean life.Some of these are tiny plants and animals that grow and live inside the reefs.Others are bigger sea animals that come to find food and shelte...
The overall goal of thisthesis was to assess the relative importance of farmers and foragers, and the interactionsbetween them, in determining the structure and dynamics of benthic communities oncoral reefs.The specific objectives of this thesis were to explore the role of farmers oncoral reefs, ...
The reef edge tends to be the most vibrant area of coral growth with highest cover and diversity of corals; c) reef platform, from about 15 m to 5 m deep, comprising the broadest zonation band on the reefs and showing clear differentiation with exposure of the reef slope to wind and ...

An important part of the bottom of a coral reef consists of dead coral reef framework cavities; this includes the spaces and surfaces under rubble, the undersides of skeletal organisms such as corals, the shaded undersides of overhanging dead or live coral, and deep framework cavities. Cavities...
While Cuban coral reefs are relatively healthy, they are not immune to anthropogenic impacts. Overexploitation of coral reef fishes, land-based pollution, and multiple thermally induced bleaching events have contributed to an estimated average annual decline in coral cover of 1.75%, only slightly lower...
