Reefs and Reef Environments: ABSTRACT
AAPG Bulletin, 1969Reefs are considered as largely unbedded or obscurely bedded, massive structures which are composed of solid, organically bound, in situ organisms, and which were at least potentially wave-resistant structures that rose topographically above the surrounding depositional surface.

Reef-growth model for Silurian pinnacle reefs, northern Michigan reef trend
Geology, 1979Pinnacle reefs of the Niagara Group in northern Michigan are located on a paleotopographic ramp basinward of a massive shelf-edge reef complex. The reefs increase in height from 90 m near the shelf to 180 m at the basinward limit. The more basinward pinnacles initiated in deep water as carbonate mud mounds.

Rebuilding coral reefs: does active reef restoration lead to sustainable reefs?
Current Opinion in Environmental Sustainability, 2014The coral reefs worldwide are exposed to multiple anthropogenic threats and persisting global change impacts, causing continuous degradation, also calling for the development of novel restoration methodologies. Of the most promising emerging approaches, deriving its rationale from silviculture, is the low-cost ‘gardening concept’, guided by a two-step ...

The article" Catastrophes, phase shifts,and large-scale degradation of a Caribbean coral reef" by Terence P. Hughes (9 Sept., p.1547) relates the sad story of the decline of scleractinian coral populations in Jamaica over the past two decades. The article is a rare example of the long-term research needed to document trends on reefs; however, the ...
