Drill cores from the barrier reef-edge of Tahiti exhibit 85-93-m-thick coralgal sequences recording at least 13,500 years of continuous reef growth in optimal environmental conditions. The cored reef sequences form an overall shallowing-upward succession with assemblages of branching or massive colonies of Porites at the base overlain by a robust-branching community (Acropora gr. danai/robusta) heavily...
In situ microbialites occurring in reef rocks dredged between 80 and 130 m water depth on the modern fore-reef slopes of Tahiti and the Marquesas islands yield ages ranging from 17,100±2900 to 4410±2250 years BP, suggesting that they played a prominent role during the last deglacial sea level rise.Microbialites developed in both shallow and deep water depositional environments where they characterize...
