Study of cyclical growth and demise of Miocene coral reefs in the E. Mediterranean
Lead Research Organisation:
University of Edinburgh
Department Name: Sch of Geosciences
Abstract
We aim to test the hypothesis that the growth and death of Miocene coral reefs (c. 20-5 Ma) were mainly controlled by glacio-eustatic sea-level changes and related sea-surface temperature changes.
