Coral bleaching and disease should not be underestimated as causes of Caribbean coral reef decline.
In his recent paper 'A clear human footprint in the coral reefs of the Caribbean', Mora (2008) identifies the drivers of change in Caribbean coral reef communities based on the results of comprehensive analysis. Caution is warranted in accepting some of his major conclusions because, as he himself states, the analysis is a 'snapshot of the potential drivers of coral reef change' and because som...

متن کاملCoral : a tool for compositional reliability and availability analysis ⋆
Dynamic Fault Trees in Reliability Engineering. Reliability and availability measures, such as system failure probability during a given mission time and system meantime-between-failures, are often important measures to assess in embedded systems design. There exist several techniques and formalisms for reliability/availability assessment. One such formalism is dynamic fault trees (DFT) [6]. DF...
متن کاملSuspended sediments limit coral sperm availability
Suspended sediment from dredging activities and natural resuspension events represent a risk to the reproductive processes of coral, and therefore the ongoing maintenance of reefal populations. To investigate the underlying mechanisms that could reduce the fertilisation success in turbid water, we conducted several experiments exposing gametes of the corals Acropora tenuis and A. millepora to t...
متن کاملUV-Vis Absorption and Luminescence Spectrum of LAS: Tb3+/Gd3 as a Laser Material (TECHNICAL NOTE)
This article discusses details study on crystallization , optical properties of Li-Al-Si-La glass containing nanocrystalline LaF3.and their optical energy gaps. The Urbach energy of glass samples was evaluated. By using (2% mole) Tb the green–blue range emission occurred, while by accumulation 1% mole Gd beside Tb, the indigo emission intensity (418 to 441 nm) increased.
