Biodiscovery and the Great Barrier Reef

Coral reef function: Coral reefs have various reasons other than being supposed to include the most diverse ecosystem on the earth. They are:

That's why many marine organisms live in coral reefs. Other reasons for its importance are as follows.

Since the fishery depends on coral reefs, many fish lay eggs there, and the boy is headed to the sea after spending time there.

The Great Barrier Reef brings more than $ 1.5 billion annually to the Australian economy, including fishing and tourism.

Research on coral reefs is important to provide a clear scientifically verifiable climate event record over the past one million years. This includes a record of recent major storms and human impacts recorded by changes in coral growth pattern.

The importance of a healthy ecosystem: Reducing biodiversity due to species extinction inevitably leads to ecological health and function collapse. A healthy ecosystem is important to us.

Services that we rely on, such as recovery and purification of water and air, soil production, decomposition of pollutants, etc.

Social, cultural and recreational activities such as our many unique national parks, world heritage, and other special places we want to visit

A wide variety of species provide larger gene pools, which provide survival options for natural populations in environmental conditions and climate change. As these natural selections support the "best" selection among these survival options, species evolve over time. Thus, species with limited absolute diversity are more threatening.

As scientists do not know all the knowledge of all species, existing species need protection. The species may play an important role in the ecosystem and if organisms are removed, all organisms of the community may experience this effect. The greater the number of species, the greater the genetic diversity in the ecosystem and the less the impact of removing individual species.

The health, management and conservation of biodiversity is a fundamental problem faced by mankind and it is a big challenge for today's biology. The main factors that affect the health and function of the Great Barrier Reef are climate change and pollution. As a Queenslander, we have to develop strategies to protect coral reefs.

An example of the most famous and largest barrier reef is Australia's Great Barrier Reef. Other major examples are Belize Barrier Reef and New Caledonia Barrier Reef. Barrier Reef is also found on the southeastern coast of Providencia, Mayotte, Gambia, Kalimantan, the southeastern region of New Guinea, the coast of the south of the Luanda archipelago. Platform coral reef known as a coral reef or coral reef can be formed in the continental shelf and open ocean and in fact it is enough to promote the growth of schistosomes and coral reefs of animals, I am going anywhere. Coral plain coral reefs are located in the southern part of the Great Barrier Reef and clusters of continental shelf swans and Capricorn are about 100 to 200 km from the coast. Several platform coral reefs in the northern part of Musculin are thousands of kilometers from the mainland.

Legged coral reefs are widely distributed but are most common in the southern part of the Great Barrier Reef and are connected to high islands such as the Whitsunday Islands. Southern Barrier Reef is located in Southern Barrier Reef and in the north is near Charlotte Bay. Cretant reefs, like coral reefs around Lizard Island, are the most common reef shape in the middle of the system. Crescent reef was also seen at the northernmost tip of the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park and Swan Leaf (20 to 22 degrees south latitude). The plane reef is in the north and the south, it is near the Cape York Peninsula, Charlotte Bay princess, Cairns. Most of the coral reef islands are on flat coral reefs. : 158-160

The Royal Committee did not permit the Great Barrier Reef's oil drilling, and in 1975 the Australian Government established the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park and banned various activities. The Great Barrier Reef Marine Park does not include the entire Great Barrier Reef state. This park, cooperating with the Queensland state government, is managed by the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park Bureau to ensure that the park is used in a sustainable manner. Combinations of zoning, management plan, permission, education and incentives (eg ecotourism certification) to protect coral reefs
