Prehistorical and historical declines in Caribbean coral reef accretion rates driven by loss of parrotfish
Fishing of keystone herbivores such as parrotfish is thought to negatively impact corals. Here, Cramer and colleagues analyse the sedimentary record for the last 3,000 years from three coral reef sites in the Caribbean and show that indeed coral declines are linked to parrotfish declines.
