Environmental quality and preservation; reefs, corals, and carbonate sands; guides to reef-ecosystem health and environment
Barbara H. Lidz
2001, Open-File Report 2000-164
Introduction In recent years, the health of the entire coral reef ecosystem that lines the outer shelf off the Florida Keys has declined markedly. In particular, loss of those coral species that are the building blocks of solid reef framework has significant negative implications for economic vitality of the region. What are the reasons for this decline? Is it due...
