In fact, a region extending from off central Florida to Georgia has been named the “Million Mounds” area and is estimated to contain tens-of-thousands of coral mounds. Oceanographic patterns in this region are dominated by the Gulf Stream an

Innovation in Service Design Thinking,, owing in part to a rich history of geological and oceanographic research in these waters, decades before they were mapped and characterised in terms of their biodiversity. This chapter explores this history and considers the formation and diversity of coral habitats at three scales: (1) small cora

Umar Zakir Abdul Hamid,Mari Suoheimo. Many submarine canyons, escarpments, seamounts, and outer continental shelf and slope areas support communities dominated by scleractinian cold-water corals or coral gardens composed of a diverse fauna of octocoral and black coral species. Other areas across the Mediterranean Sea show evidence of

Paola Maria Trapani,Ke Ma,Mo Jiaocean. The most striking observation is that cold-water corals thrive in extensive oxygen minimum zones under extreme conditions. This points to a wide tolerance of cold-water corals in these regions to low oxygen concentrations. The coral mound provinces off Mauritania, Angola, and Namibia, which ar

In this chapter, we first set the broader environmental scene by describing the geological and bathymetric setting of the region and its complex oceanography at both the surface and in the deep sea. We then describe current knowledge of the
