Prehistorical and historical declines in Caribbean coral reef accretion rates driven by loss of parrotfish
Caribbean coral reefs have transformed into algal-dominated habitats over recent decades, but the mechanisms of change are unresolved due to a lack of quantitative ecological data before large-scale human impacts. To understand the role of reduced herbivory in recent coral declines, we produce a hig...
