Marine Pollution Bulletin, 181, 113875.https://repoemc.ukm.my/handle/123456789/1491Anthropogenic nutrient pollution has been identified as one of the key stressors of coastal ecosystems. However, the paucity of long-term nutrient records limits our understanding of both the extent of nutrient pollution as well as of the ecological impacts. Here, using coral skeletal phosphorus (P/Ca), we reconstructed a half-a-century record of seawater phosphate at Port Dickson, Malaysia.ennutrient pollutionphosphateSoutheast AsiaPort DicksoncoralP/CaA half-century record of coral skeletal P/Ca reveals late 20th century nutrient pollution in Port Dickson, MalaysiaJournal
