Background. Coral reefs provide several important geo-ecological functions essential for the sustainability of coastal human communities. However, during the last 50 years, reef ecosystems are experiencing rapid degradation caused by natural and anthropogenic disturbances. One consequence of the above has been the reduction in the carbonate production rate and the structural complexity of these systems. Particularly, the loss of key coral species in the construction of reefs has compromised the functionality of the ecosystem. Objective. In this study we used an adaptation of the ReefBudget methodology to measure the calcium carbonate budget in the reef of La Entrega, Oaxaca, Mexico. Methods. Six transects were carried out to estimate the ab...
