Coral Reefs of the Gulf: Adaptation to Climatic Extremes is a complete review and reference for scientists, engineers and students concerned with the geology, biology or engineering aspects of coral reefs in the Middle East. It provides for the first time a complete review of both the geology and biology of all extant coral areas in the Gulf, the water body between Iran and the Arabian Peninsula. In summer, this area is the hottest sea with abundant coral growth on earth and already today exhibits a temperature that is predicted to occur across the topical ocean in 2100. Thus, by studying the Gulf today, much can be learned about tomorrow’s world and the capability of coral reefs to adapt to climatic extremes. This volume provides the most authoritative and up-to-date review of the coral reefs in the Gulf. It can be used as a volume of general reference or as a textbook treating recent coral reefs. Written by local and international experts, the text is richly illustrated and will remain a standard reference for the region for decades to come. Contributions stretch from climatology through geology, biology, ecological modelling and fisheries science to practical conservation aspects. The book is useful for the technical expert and casual reader alike.

Coral Species Diversity And Environmental Factors In The Arabian Gulf And The Gulf Of Oman written by Stephen Lee Coles and has been published by this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2003 with Coral reef ecology categories.

The reef corals of the Arabian Gulf and the Gulf of Oman comprise a substantially reduced subset of the Indo-Pacific coral fauna. Only about 10% of the species that occur in the Indo-Pacific are found in the Gulf region and community species compositions are substantially altered from assemblages that normally dominate Indo-Pacific reefs. For example, the highly diverse family Acroporidae is under-represented in the Gulf region while the families Dendrophylliidae, Faviidae and Siderastreidae are over-represented. Some of this regional uniqueness may be due to geographic isolation but it probably is primarily a result of physical and environmental conditions that are among the most extreme and stressful in the world and act to limit the diversity of corals that occur in the region. Seawater temperatures in the Arabian Gulf have historically ranged up to 25°C at coral study sites, approximately 6°C above and below the temperatures traditionally considered limiting to coral survival. Short-term temperature fluctuations in the Gulf of Oman due to upwelling can range up to 8°C in a day without visible effect on resident corals. Salinities survived by Gulf corals range up to 50 parts per thousand (ppt), about 15 ppt higher than normal ocean salinity in the Indo-Pacific. Other factors, such as relatively high turbidity and competition with macroalgae favored by low winter water temperatures, may combine with temperature and salinity to limit the development of diverse coral populations in the Gulf. The implications of the potential contribution of this region's reservoir of hardy coral phenotypes to the Indo-Pacific coral fauna during an era of general worldwide environmental stress are discussed.
