Integrated coastal zone management of coral reefs : decision support modeling /

Coral reefs, also referred to as "rainforests of the sea", are vital to the source of food and livelihood of millions of people. However, in 1997 and 1998 elevated sea surface temperature in many tropical regions triggered widespread bleaching and the heaviest mortality of corals. This res...
