REEF ZONATION: A trip from west (lagoon side) to east (ocean side) across the Belizean reef complex will reveal a distinct
zonation of substrates and organisms that reflect the subtle environmental changes due to water depth and prevailing wave and current regimes which affect temperature, salinity, light, sedimentation and mechanical stress.
«We hope this tool, which displays
zonation of carbohydrate and nitrogen metabolism, in addition to drug detoxification and alcohol degradation, will improve our ability to understand and predict the effects of toxins and new drugs on the liver.»
