Coral distribution
Coral habitat is a biogenic marine habitat is an environment created by living organisms, such as seagrasses, mangroves, or oysters, that form complex structures in marine ecosystems. These habitats provide shelter, feeding grounds, and breeding areas for various marine species, enhancing biodiversity. They are crucial for ecosystem functions, such as nutrient cycling and shoreline protection. Examples include coral reefs, kelp forests, and oyster beds. Biogenic habitats are sensitive to environmental changes and human activities, making their conservation vital for maintaining marine biodiversity.
