Bioerosión interna en corales masivos asociados a las comunidades arrecifales del Pacífico nororiental tropical: Efecto de factores intrínsecos y extrínsecos

Abstract: El desarrollo y el mantenimiento de los arrecifes coralinos depende del balance entre la producción (acreción) y la remoción (erosión) del CaCO3 generado principalmente por corales hermatípicos. El material calcáreo puede ser removido del esqueleto de coral por agentes físicos, químicos o biológicos, y este último es el de mayor influencia. Pese a su importancia, pocos estudios han estimado la tasa de bioerosión en comunidades coralinas de la costa mexicana del Pacífico. En este estudio se determinó el volumen… Show more

“…Interestingly, when it comes to internal macrobioerosion (which we did not focus on) and skeletal density, an opposite relationship has been reported to occur i.e., higher internal bioerosion occurring as skeletal density increases. This is probably because internal macroeroders such as polychaetes, bivalves, and so on, seek shelter, and therefore may favor denser, more resistant skeletons (Hern andez-Ballesteros et al 2013;Cosain-Díaz et al 2021).…”

“…However, an important constraint with such estimations, is that they do not consider the potentially different resistance of distinct types of dead carbonate substrates (i.e., coral species) to erosion caused by variation in skeletal morphology, skeleton architecture, or skeletal density. For instance, erosion by encrusting sponges and other internal bioeroders has been shown to be positively correlated with coral skeletal density (Hernández‐Ballesteros et al 2013; Cosain‐Díaz et al 2021). This suggests that beyond the influence of the environment (e.g., temperature, pH, light availability), erosion in coral reefs likely also varies depending not only on the abundance of bioeroders, but also on the composition of benthic carbonate producers, and on the endolithic and epilithic communities that some bioeroding organisms target while feeding and which might itself be related to different substrate characteristics.…”
