This book displays various topics related to knowledge, preservation and diagnosis of coral ecosystems. It shows different practical case studies, within them, the use of corals as indicators of geochemical thermal anomalies and the use of biochemical and molecular frontier tools to diagnose the coral population. It also analyses several aspects of diversity, ecology and distribution of black coral, as well as addresses the ecological significance of bacteria in the community structure of a coral reef. This book presents studies that may be understood from the septogenesis principles to the study of the interconnection of coral ecosystems with artificial reefs, and a deep review about the methodological instruments supported by the molecular knowledge to make decisions on the coral ecosystems management.

Preface; Use of Molecular Techniques to Study the Ecology of Microorganisms Associated with Corals; Paleoceanographic Coral Records of El Nino Variability in the Gulf of California; Biological & Ecological Relevance of Black Corals (Antipatharia) in the Benthic Environment; Community Structure of Coral Associated Bacteria & Their Ecological Significance; Ecological Index Between Natural Coral Reefs & a Shipwreck in Santiago Bay, Manzanillo Colima, Mexico; Effects of Tourism on Coral Reef Ecosystems; Biochemical Markers of Coral Reef Health; Remarks on the Septogenesis of Palaeozoic Corals; Evaluation of Two Techniques for Restoration of Pocillopora spp.: Early Effects of Species & Marine Environment; Index.
