... that "microatolls" of the coral Porites lutea have been used to study past changes in sea-level? Source: "Microatoll record for large century-scale sea-level fluctuations in the mid-Holocene"

Hi Cwmhiraeth, review follows: article created 26 September; article exceeds minimum length and is well written (though I would prefer to see a slightly longer lead); I can't access many of the sources but I found no paraphrasing issues front the ones I could access; article is cited inline throughout to reliable sources; hook fact is mentioned in the article but source is not accessible to me (the abstract does not mention the coral name), happy to AGF; a QPQ has been carried out. Looks good to me - Dumelow (talk) 11:02, 1 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
