Anthropogenic impacts on reducing biodiversity of the Great Barrier Reef

Sve veći antropogeni utjecaji na bioraznolikost postali su zabrinjavajući. Čovjek nekontrolirano troši resurse bez pretjerane brige za održivo gospodarenje prirodom. Posebno ranjivo područje je područje Velikog koraljnog grebena, koje pruža zaklon i hranu tisućama različitih riba i beskralješnjaka. I najmanje narušavanje prirodne ravnoteže može ostaviti ozbiljne posljedice. Grebenu prijete kako prirodni, tako i društveni čimbenici. U radu će se kroz analizu literature i kartografskih izvora, obraditi negativan antropogeni utjecaj na najveću strukturu građenu od živih organizama na Zemlji– Veliki koraljni greben.The increasing anthropogenic impacts on biodiversity have become worrisome. Man indiscriminating consumes resources without worrying about the sustainable management of nature. Particularly vulnerable area is the Great Barrier Reef, which provides shelter and food for thousands of different fish and invertebrates. Slightly disturbance to the balance can have serious consequences. The Reef is threaten by both, natural and social factors. In the thesis throughout analyzing literature and cartographic sources will be processed negative impact of human activities on the biggest structure made by living organisms on the Earth - Great Barrier Reef
