BIFURCATION ANALYSIS OF A DDE MODEL OF THE CORAL REEF
In this paper, first we discuss a local stability analysis of model was introduced by P. J. Mumby et. al. (2007), with $frac{gM^{2}}{M+T}$ as the functional response term. We conclude that the grazing intensity is the important parameter to control the existence or extinction of the coral reef. Next, we consider this model under the influence of the time delay as the bifurcat...
متن کاملPostglacial Fringing-Reef to Barrier-Reef conversion on Tahiti links Darwin's reef types
In 1842 Charles Darwin claimed that vertical growth on a subsiding foundation caused fringing reefs to transform into barrier reefs then atolls. Yet historically no transition between reef types has been discovered and they are widely considered to develop independently from antecedent foundations during glacio-eustatic sea-level rise. Here we reconstruct reef development from cores recovered b...
متن کاملLate Holocene island reef development on the inner zone of the northern Great Barrier Reef: Insights from Low Isles Reef
A sedimentological and stratigraphic study of Low Isles Reef off northern Queensland, Australia was carried out to improve understanding of factors that have governed Late Holocene carbonate deposition and reef development on the inner to middle shelf of the northern Great Barrier Reef. Low Isles Reef is one of 46 low wooded island-reefs unique to the northern Great Barrier Reef, which are situ...
متن کاملThe role of cryptobenthic reef fishes in coral reef trophodynamics
An examination of the trophic status of a cryptobenthic reef fish community from the central Great Barrier Reef was carried out to evaluate the potential role of cryptobenthic fishes in coral reef ecosystems. Using frequency of occurrence data, dietary analyses revealed a diverse range of trophic groups, although detritivory (in 10 out of 16 species and 39.3% of individuals) and carnivory (5 of...
