Seawater carbonate chemistry, calcification and dissolution of a coral reef in the northern Red Sea, 2007
In this study we investigated the relations between community calcification of an entire coral reef in the northern Red Sea and annual changes in temperature, aragonite saturation and nutrient loading over a two year period. Summer (April-October) and winter (November-March) average calcification ra...
