Over thousands of years, the accumulation of these skeletons, along with the growth of various marine organisms and algae, contributes to the complex and diverse ecosystem of the reef. Environmental factors such as water temperature, sunlight, and nutrient availability also play crucial roles in coral growth and reef development.
