Abstract

Scientists who have compiled the first world atlas of coral reefs say they cover a far smaller area of the globe than they had thought. They estimate that more than half the reefs are under threat from human activities. The reefs are being damaged faster than researchers can collect data about them and their ecosystems. But countries which look after their reefs can expect handsome returns from tourism.
