Abundance, patterns, and taxa associations of anthropogenic marine debris on reefs in the middle Florida Keys

Frontiers in Marine Science
The Florida Keys reef tract has rapidly shifted from a structurally complex, hard coral-dominated reef to a less rugose, soft coral-dominated reef. This transition has been facilitated by persistent anthropogenic stressors including recreational and ...
