An environmental assessment of the John Pennekamp Coral Reef State Park and the Key Largo Coral Reef Marine Sanctuary (Unpublished 1983 Report) [PDF]
, 2002 The Pennekamp Coral Reef State Park was established in 1960 and the Key Largo National Marine Sanctuary in 1975. Field studies, funded by NOAA, were conducted in 1980 - 1981 to determine the state of the coral reefs and surrounding areas in relation to ...

Bahaman patch reefs: Numerous and neglected
The Depositional Record, EarlyView.Abstract Phanerozoic patch reefs are extensively studied because they are abundant and are potential reservoirs for valuable fluids. In contrast, geologic studies of modern reefs have largely focused on platform margins, leaving patch reefs comparatively neglected. What conditions favour patch‐reef development?

Responses of coral reefs and reef organisms to sedimentation
Marine Ecology Progress Series, 1990 Unprecedented development along tropical shorelines is causing severe degradation of coral reefs primarily from increases in sedimentation. Sediment particles smother reef organisms and reduce light available for photosynthesis. Excessive sedmentation can adversely affect the structure and function of the coral reef ecosystem by altering both physical ...

Mapping and Characterizing Subtidal Oyster Reefs Using Acoustic Techniques, Underwater Videography and Quadrat Counts [PDF]
, 2003 Populations of the eastern oyster Crassostrea virginica have been in long-term decline in most areas. A major hindrance to effective oyster management has been lack of a methodology for accurately and economically obtaining data on their distribution and

The Depositional Record, EarlyView.Despite advanced wastewater treatment, dilution by rainwater and mixing, and microbial modification, nitrogen nutrients derived from shallowly injected wastewater are detected in nearshore waters in the Florida Keys. Abstract Injection of treated wastewater into the shallow subsurface on islands and along coastlines is a common practice in areas like ...

The Depositional Record, EarlyView.A 30 m long sedimentary succession at the bottom of the Belize Blue Hole represents terrestrial cenote (12.5–7.2 ka BP), restricted marine swamp (7.2–5.7 ka BP) and fully marine lagoonal phases (5.7–0 ka BP) on Lighthouse Reef carbonate platform. Post‐glacial and Holocene sea‐level rise largely controlled the sedimentological, faunal and floral changes
