This book provides a unique perspective on the destruction - both
natural and human-caused - of coral reef ecosystems. Reconstructing
the ecological history of coral reefs, the authors evaluate whether
recent dramatic changes are novel events or part of a long-term
trend or cycle. The text combines principles of geophysics,
paleontology, and marine sciences with real-time observation,
examining the interacting causes of change: hurricane damage,
predators, disease, rising sea-level, nutrient loading, global
warming and ocean acidification. Predictions about the future of
coral reefs inspire strategies for restoration and management of
ecosystems. Useful for students and professionals in ecology and
marine biology, including environmental managers.
