Cross-shelf benthic community structure on the Great Barrier Reef: relationships between macroalgal cover and herbivore biomass (2009, background): “Previous studies have provided detailed descriptive data on the distribution patterns of other substratum categories, including scleractinian corals (Done 1982), soft corals (Dinesen 1983) and crustose coralline algae (Fabricius & De’ath 2001).”
Capturing the cornerstones of coral reef resilience: linking theory to practice (2008, background): “In coral reefs, the archetypical example of a regime shift is a shift from coral to macroalgae dominance (Hughes 1994), and it has been observed to occur on reefs throughout the world (Done 1992; Wilkinson 2004).”
