Abstract: | Summary A database on modern isolated neritic carbonate banks from the tropical and subtropical oceans provides individual and collective
data on the geography (distribution and coordinates), morphology (summit area, perimeter, depth, reefs). A bibliography is
also provided. Maps illustrate the global distribution and the major clusters of the banks. The database allows to estimate
the number of banks that were too small to be mapped, and gives insights into the global significance of carbonate bank summits
and slopes. |
