  abstract = {{C}oral reefs have grown continuously during the {L}ast 24 ka on the island of {E}spiritu {S}anto ({V}anuatu, {S}outh-{W}est {P}acific) in a setting characterized by frequent tectonic uplifts related to subduction of the {A}ustralia plate beneath the {V}anuatu {I}sland arc. {S}edimento logical and geochemical studies of two neighbouring areas having much different mean uplift rates and environmental settings provides an opportunity to analyze the environmental factors that promoted the widespread development of microbialite crusts from about 24 to 6 ka {B}.{P}. {N}utrient supplies, and probably the rapidity of the sea level fise, are critical to an explanation of the distinctive distribution of microbialites in reef cores. {N}utrient flux has been related to terrigenous fluxes in the {T}asmaloum reef system that fringed the south-west uplifting coast of {E}spiritu {S}anto and possibly to upwelling in the {U}relapa sequence that was isolated from the main island during its growth. {A} peak in microbialite abundance occurred between 16 and 10 ka {B}.{P}., a time window characterized by increasing erosional processes and/or more intense upwelling during a very rapid rise in sea-level. {C}rown {C}opyright (c) 2005 {P}ublished by {E}lsevier {B}.{V}. {A}ll rights reserved.},
