About The ProductPublished by the American Geophysical Union as part of the Field Trip Guidebooks Series. The excursion begins at Miami and makes numerous swimming stops to examine reef-building processes and sediment distribution en route to the Dry Tortugas. Because this is a boat trip, there is no rigid stop-by-stop plan with measured distances, as is common in guidebooks for land-based excursions. This guide provides geologic and biologic background and discussion relating to reef distribution throughout the field trip area. Day-by-day trip plans will be provided on the first day. A coral identification key and historical information are included in Appendices A-C. Under ideal weather conditions, all the sites listed can be visited in the order presented. Content:
