Effects of Sea-Level Rise on Coral Reefs
... The impact on coral reefs from a rapid rise in sea level cannot be envisaged by considering the response of corals to sea-level change in isolation from other influences that presently govern coral growth. Although the direct response of corals to sea-level rise has been discussed by many authors, t ...

National Ocean Service
The National Ocean Service (NOS), an office within the U.S. Department of Commerce National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, is responsible for preserving and enhancing the nation’s coastal resources and ecosystems along 95,000 miles (153,000 km) of shoreline bordering 3,500,000 square miles (9,100,000 km2) of coastal, Great Lakes, and ocean waters. Its mission is to ""provide science-based solutions through collaborative partnerships to address evolving economic, environmental, and social pressures on our oceans and coasts."" NOS works closely with many partner agencies to ensure that ocean and coastal areas are safe, healthy, and productive. National Ocean Service scientists, natural resource managers, and specialists ensure safe and efficient marine transportation, promote innovative solutions to protect coastal communities, and conserve marine and coastal places.
