Abstract

Coral reefs have been described as very stable systems in delicate balance with nature. They are also the most sensitive and vulnerable ecosystems in the sea (Grigg and Dollar 1990). Their exposure to some of the most common natural and anthropogenic perturbations have caused considerable decline of their health during the last three decades (Grigg and Dollar 1990; Ginsburg 1994; Birkeland 1997).
