Low Bioerosion Rates on Inshore Turbid Reefs of Western Australia

Low Bioerosion Rates on Inshore Turbid Reefs of Western Australia

Bioerosion on inshore reefs is expected to increase with global climate change reducing reef stability and accretionary potential. Most studies investigating bioerosion have focused on external grazers, such as parrotfish and urchins, whose biomass is more easily measured. Yet, cryptic endolithic bi...
