As they grow they lay down a calcium carbonate skeleton that provides structural complexity and, consequently, living space for the majority of other reef-dwelling organisms – a reef system without corals is analogous to a forest without trees! Over the previous three decades a process known as “reef-flattening" has caused.
Summary. 1. There has been ongoing flattening of Caribbean coral reefs with the loss of habitat having severe implications for these systems. Complexity and its structural components are important to fish species richness and community composition, but little is known about its role for other taxa or species-specific
14 Apr 2015 Abstract. Caribbean coral reefs are becoming structurally simpler, largely due to human impacts. .. The two panels derive from different data sources due to the lack of site overlap between the habitat (coral cover and reef rugosity) and fish datasets. (PDF) .

20 Dec 2017 Full-text (PDF) | Coral reefs are rich in biodiversity, in large part because their highly complex architecture provides shelter and resources for a wide range of organisms. Recent rapid declines in hard coral cover have occurred across the Caribbean region, but the concomitant consequences for re

From an anthropocentric standpoint, coral reefs provide valuable goods and services, supporting fisheries and tourism, and protect shorelines from storms7. Recently, widespread coral mortality has led to the flattening of reef frameworks and the loss of
