Holocene Reef Development in the Eastern Tropical Pacific,amework are present throughout the region, although they tend to be poorly consolidated, lack the submarine cementation common on most reefs elsewhere in the world, and are subject to considerable bioerosion. These reef frameworks began accreting as early as 7000?years ago. The thickest accumulation

The coral reefs in this region have a relatively limited suite of species compared to other coral reef areas of the world, but much like more diverse reefs the species present interact in complex ways. Here we synt

,El Ni?o-Southern Oscillation: Effects on Eastern Pacific Coral Reefs and Associated Biota,long-term effects on eastern Pacific reef-building corals and associated organisms. ENSO is manifested in two complementary phases, namely warm (El Ni?o) and cool (La Ni?a) events, which have contrasting and potentially negative effects on coral reef ecosystems. Of the two distinct types of El Ni?o

Trophodynamics of Eastern Pacific Coral Reefs,this chapter, we first address the sources of energy at the base of food webs, i.e. photosynthetic carbon fixation by benthic algae and endosymbiotic zooxanthellae, secondarily derived organic deposits, detritus, and fecal matter, as well as demersal (within reef) and allochthonous plankton food sou

Coral Reef Bioerosion in the Eastern Tropical Pacific, Eastern Tropical Pacific (ETP). Bioerosional processes are the main source of reef erosion, and facilitate recycling of reefal carbonate. In healthy reefs, a dynamic balance exists between destructive (i.e. bioerosion) and constructive (i.e. bioaccretion) processes, allowing for maintenance and gro
