Cold-water coral reef frameworks, megafaunal communities and evidence for coral carbonate mounds on the Hatton Bank, north east Atlantic [PDF]
, 2008 Offshore banks and seamounts sustain diverse megafaunal communities, including framework reefs formed by cold-water corals. Few studies have quantified environmental effects on the alpha or beta diversity of these communities.

Effect of Saturation on Shear Behavior and Particle Breakage of Coral Sand
Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022 Coral sand is the main filling material for the island–reef foundation. Under tidal actions, the saturation (Sr) of coral sand layers varies with the specific depths in the reclaimed foundation. Studying the Sr effect of coral sand’s mechanical behaviors

On the Formation of Coral Sand [PDF]
Nature, 1876 IN the best books on geology one finds that the formation of coral sand is attributed to trituration by the force of the surf, the waste of shells and minute globigerinae, and even to the droppings of those fishes which are said to browse upon the living coral.

Metagenomic views of microbial communities in sand sediments associated with coral reefs [PDF]
Microbial Ecology, 2021 Abstract Reef sediments, the home for microbes with high abundances, provide an important source of carbonates and nutrients for the growth and maintenance of coral reefs. However, there is a lack of systematic research on the composition of microbial community in sediments of different coral reef sites and the effect of microbial functional ...
