Repercussions of embarkation wharves in Lakshadweep Islands on coral communities and their ecology
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 2014)
Present study infers that the construction of embarkation wharves in four of the Lakshadweep islands (Agatti, Amini, Kavaratti and Minicoy) in the last 5 years was accompanied by a marked degradation of coral community ...
