摘要
Though coral reef is one of the most highly productive and species rich types of ecosystem on the whole planet, it is also a fragile ecosystem susceptible to the change of its environment. In this paper the concept, type and distribution of the coral reef ecosystem are introduced in brief and its structure and functions are quantitatively described.Finally,the ecological stresses from nature and human are analized and related strategies of the conservation and management are proposed.
