Ep53 - Interaction between coral reefs, sea level, and tectonics
In this episode of Behind the Science Podcast, we dive deep into the fascinating interaction between coral reefs, sea level changes, and tectonics with geoscientist Jeffrey Munar. Specializing in marine acoustics, coastal geomorphology, and geospatial analysis. Jeffrey shares his findings about the morphology of Apo Reef and Tubbataha Reef and how it relates to sea level change and tectonics during the past 20,000 years.
