Reef Crest Processes

Reef Crest Processes is a geomorphological concept referring to the dynamic physical, biological, and chemical mechanisms occurring at the highest and most seaward prominent zone of a coral reef, where wave energy is dissipated and sediment is transported or deposited, thereby shaping reef structure and influencing coastal stability.
