Coral Skeletons Record Increasing Agriculture‐Related Groundwater Nitrogen Inputs to a South Pacific Reef Over the Past Century

Abstract Anthropogenic activity on tropical islands has been linked with nitrogen (N) contamination of groundwater and subsequent coral reef health decline. However, identifying the temporal patterns of groundwater N contamination has proven difficult because of an absence of long‐term records. Here...
