  26. <meta content="Few phenomena have had as great an impact on marine ecosystems in Australia, or
  27. generated as much interest, solicitude and contention, as outbreaks of the coral-eating
  28. crown-of-thorns starfish (Acanthaster planci) on the Great Barrier Reef (GBR). The two
  29. recent periods of activity of the starfish (1962-77 and 1979 to present) have had greatest
  30. impact in the central third of the GBR (about 15-20°S), where is it estimated that about
  31. two-thirds of reefs have been affected (Moran 1986; Moran et al. 1988; Reichelt et al. 1990).
  32. After these infestations it takes about 15-20 years for coral cover to replenish, but the time
  33. for recovery of biodiversity of corals, particularly of communities of massive species (Done
  34. 1988; Endean et al. 1988; Cameron et al. 1991), may be much longer." name="eprints.abstract" />

  265. generated as much interest, solicitude and contention, as outbreaks of the coral-eating&#13;
  266. crown-of-thorns starfish (Acanthaster planci) on the Great Barrier Reef (GBR). The two&#13;
  267. recent periods of activity of the starfish (1962-77 and 1979 to present) have had greatest&#13;
  268. impact in the central third of the GBR (about 15-20°S), where is it estimated that about&#13;
  269. two-thirds of reefs have been affected (Moran 1986; Moran et al. 1988; Reichelt et al. 1990).&#13;
  270. After these infestations it takes about 15-20 years for coral cover to replenish, but the time&#13;
  271. for recovery of biodiversity of corals, particularly of communities of massive species (Done&#13;
  272. 1988; Endean et al. 1988; Cameron et al. 1991), may be much longer.</p></div><table style="margin-bottom: 1em" border="0" cellpadding="3" class="not_ep_block"><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Item Type:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row">Article</td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Additional Information:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row">Definitive version available at http://www.publish.csiro.au/nid/126/issue/2882.htm</td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Subjects:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row"><a href="http://eprints.utas.edu.au/view/subjects/270702.html">270000 Biological Sciences &gt; 270700 Ecology and Evolution &gt; 270702 Marine and Estuarine Ecology (incl.
