A new database on the distribution of isolated low-latitude banks is evaluated to assess their carbonate production and climatic impact since the last glacial maximum (LGM). Most bank summits are 70 m deep or shallower. ...
Fore-reef carbonate production is important but is poorly known as a result of methodological limitations. This paper reports on the development of a regional census-based method to calculate the average carbonate production ...
The growth and origin of the world's isolated carbonate banks are as yet not completely understood. This paper presents a comparison of the areas, depths, and latitudinal distribution of the world's carbonate banks. These ...
