Bioerosion on Modern Reefs: Impacts and Responses Under Changing Ecological and Environmental Conditions -- 5. Sponge Contributions to the Geology and Biology of Reefs: Past, Present, and Future -- 6. The Changing Face of Reef Building -- 7. Stability of Reef-Coral Assemblages in the Quaternary -- 8. Reefs Through Time: An Evolutionary View -- 9. Climate Change, Ocean Chemistry, and the Evolution of Reefs through Time -- 10. Living and Mineral Reefs: Are They Comparable and What Ecological Information is Preserved? -- 11. Physical and Biological Drivers of Coral-Reef Dynamics -- 12. Measuring, Interpreting, and Responding To Changes in Coral Reefs: A Challenge for Biologists, Geologists and Managers.In this book, contributors from diverse backgrounds take a first step toward an integrated view of reefs and the significance of their recent decline. More than any other earth system, coral reefs sit at a disciplinary crossroads. Most recently, they have reached another crossroads - fundamental changes in their bio-physical structure greater than those of previous centuries or even millennia. Effective strategies to mitigate recent trends will require an approach that embraces the myriad perspectives from across the scientific landscape, but will also need a mechanism to transform scientific understanding into social will and political implementation. .Coral Reefs of the World,2213-719X ;6GeoecologyEnvironmental geologySystems biologyClimate changeConservation biologyEcology Environmental managementGeoecology/Natural Processeshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U21006Systems Biologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L15010Climate Change/Climate Change Impactshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/313000Conservation Biology/Ecologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L19150Environmental Managementhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U17009Geoecology.Environmental geology.Systems biology.Climate change.Conservation biology.Ecology .Environmental management.Geoecology/Natural Processes.Systems Biology.Climate Change/Climate Change Impacts.Conservation Biology/Ecology.Environmental Management.551.424Hubbard Dennis Kedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtRogers Caroline Sedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtLipps Jere Hedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtStanley Jr., George Dedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910254129203321Coral Reefs at the Crossroads2511340UNINA
