Publisher's Synopsis

Veron presents the geological history of Australia's Great Barrier Reef, the biology of coral reef ecosystems, and a primer on what we know about climate change. He concludes that the Great Barrier Reef and, indeed, most coral reefs will be dead by mass bleaching and irreversible acidification within the coming century.
