Causes

Effects

Poor land management and deforestationis leadingto increased run - off and higher levels of sediment accumulating on coral reefs

an amazing placecomposedof coral - like deposits of fossils and algae

a reef islandcomposed fullyof sediment produced within the surrounding coral reefs

a reef islandcomposed totallyof sediment produced within the surrounding coral reefs

erosionresultingin the runoff of sediments which eventually reach the coral reefs

Land degradation and the spread of desertification lead to the loss of biodiversity in the marine ecosystemresultingin water pollution , eutrophication , and the degradation of coral reefs

the direct discharge of untreated water along the shoremay resultin coral reef deterioration and algae formation

sea levelresultingin changing water depths and cyclical deposition of sediment

groundwatercausingland settlement and removal of coral

Aquaculturecan causeeutrophication and oxygen depletion in the sediments

These environmental factorscontributingto the deterioration of present day corals , and larval settlement

These entirely natural eventsregularly resultin massive resuspension of bottom sediments and siltation of corals

their spinescauseexcessive abrasion to the corals and bioerosion of the reef

such activitieshave ledto increased sediment loads on inshore coral reefs

Climate changeis causingdamage to coral reefs and watersheds

poor water quality levelresultsin frequent algal blooms and coral reef deterioration
