Tsunami Less Destructive than Overfishing to Sumatran Reefs
Coral reefs fringing the coast of western Sumatra suffered minor physical damage from the December 2004 tsunami compared with the destruction on land, newly published research shows. A scientific team sent by Reef Check to the Indonesian island nearest the epicenter of the earthquake and tsunami found overturned and broken corals, but no tsunami damage at more than half of the reefs surveyed.
