Coralline algae are globally distributed benthic primary producers that secrete calcium
carbonate skeletons. In the context of ocean acidification, they have received much recent …

Defined here as 'essentially in place calcareous deposits created by sessile organisms',
Organic Reefs are diverse and complex structures with a long geological history. Their …

Reefs are an extraordinary natural phenomenon. Visible from outer space, coral reefs are
the largest biologically constructed features known; in close proximity their spectacular …

Calcified macroalgae are distributed in marine habitats from polar to tropical latitudes and
from intertidal shores to the deepest reaches of the euphotic zone. These algae play critical …

The combination of core and cuttings analyses and well-log data from the Late Oligocene–
Early Miocene carbonate buildup in the Malampaya gas field (Offshore Palawan …

Here we provide a broad overview of the Great Amazon Reef System (GARS) based on the
first-ever video surveys of the region. This footage supports four major hypotheses:(1) the …

Function-based studies have opened a new chapter in our understanding of coral reefs.
Unfortunately, we are opening this chapter as the world's reefs rapidly transform. In this …

Carbonate frameworks secreted by phototrophic organisms within the Arctic Circle are not
well documented. Underwater surveys of the inner‐shelf off Troms, northern Norway (70° N) …

This critical review focusses on three areas of recent research on the crustose coralline
algae: Calcification and Diagenesis Recent work has clarified the calcification of corallines …

In modern and Phanerozoic times, heterozoan carbonates group a large array of
depositional environments from the poles to the tropics. This global assessment reviews the …
