Other environmental pressures on the reef and its ecosystem include runoff, climate change accompanied by mass coral bleaching, dumping of dredging sludge and cyclic population outbreaks of the crown-of-thorns starfish. | WIKI |
The types of corals that reproduced also changed, leading to a "long-term reorganisation of the reef ecosystem if the trend continues. | WIKI |
Farming fertiliser runoff release nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium into the oceanic ecosystem, and these limiting nutrients cause massive algal growth which eventually leads to a reduction in oxygen available for other creatures in a process called eutrophication. | WIKI |
This process conserves marine biodiversity by considering the whole ecosystem a species is in and how different species interact in the marine environment. | WIKI |
Tourism operators also must comply with speed limits when travelling to or from tourist destinations, to prevent excessive wake from the boats disturbing the reef ecosystem. | WIKI |
As the worldxe2x80x99s most extensive coral reef ecosystem, the Great Barrier Reef is a globally outstanding and significant entity. | UNESCO |

Criterion (viii): The GBR, extending 2,000 kilometres along Queensland's coast, is a globally outstanding example of an ecosystem that has evolved over millennia. | UNESCO |
Today the GBR forms the worldxe2x80x99s largest coral reef ecosystem, ranging from inshore fringing reefs to mid-shelf reefs, and exposed outer reefs, including examples of all stages of reef development. | UNESCO |
Biologically the unique diversity of the GBR reflects the maturity of an ecosystem that has evolved over millennia; evidence exists for the evolution of hard corals and other fauna. | UNESCO |
At the scale of the GBR ecosystem, most habitats or species groups have the capacity to recover from disturbance or withstand ongoing pressures. | UNESCO |
The extent and persistence of damage to the GBR ecosystem will depend to a large degree on the amount of change in the worldxe2x80x99s climate and on the resilience of the GBR ecosystem to such change. | UNESCO |
