Shallow coral reefs in French Polynesia face various threats, including coral bleaching, ocean acidification, pollution, overfishing, and physical damage from coastal development and tourism activities. Coral bleaching disrupts the symbiotic relationship between corals and algae. Ocean acidification, resulting from increased carbon dioxide absorption by seawater. Pollution from land-based sources introduces sedimentation, nutrients, and toxins that can smother corals and promote algal overgrowth. Overfishing of herbivorous fish species disrupts the natural balance of coral reef ecosystems, leading to increased algae growth and coral decline. Coastal development and irresponsible tourism practices further threaten shallow coral reefs by causing habitat destruction and physical damage.
