chimera Posted May 3, 2005 Report Share Posted May 3, 2005 General information - interesting to know... Apron reef — short reef resembling a fringing reef, but more sloped; extending out and downward from a point or peninsular shore. Fringing reef — reef extending directly out from a shoreline, and more or less following the trend of the shore. Barrier reef — reef separated from a mainland or island shore by a lagoon; see Great Barrier Reef. Patch reef — an isolated, often circular reef, usually within a lagoon or embayment. Ribbon reef — long, narrow, somewhat winding reef, usually associated with an atoll lagoon. Table reef — isolated reef, approaching an atoll type, but without a lagoon. Atoll reef — a more or less circular or continuous barrier reef surrounding a lagoon without a central island Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
