Status of Caribbean Coral Reefs after Bleaching and Hurricanes in 2005

This book, Status of Caribbean Coral Reefs after Bleaching and Hurricanes in 2005, documents the devastating effects on coral reefs from the hottest year on record with its very high sea surface temperatures and record hurricane activity throughout the Caribbean and Atlantic basins. The development of this report has brought together 71 coral reef scientists and managers, predominantly from developing countries, to catalogue the impacts of the warming and storms during 2005 and subsequently in 2006. This detailed information is valuable for environmental managers and supporting agencies.
