CHE SIGNIFICA REEF IN INGLESE
scogliera
Una barriera corallina è una roccia, sabbia o altro tratto che si trova sotto la superficie dell'acqua. Molte scogliere derivano da processi abiotici: deposizione di sabbia, erosione delle onde che scendono verso l'esterno di rocce e altri processi naturali, ma le barriere più conosciute sono le barriere coralline delle acque tropicali sviluppate attraverso processi biotici dominati dai coralli e dalle alghe calcaree. Le scogliere artificiali come i relitti sono talvolta creati per aumentare la complessità fisica su fondi di sabbia generalmente inimitabili per attirare un diverso assemblaggio di organismi, in particolare i pesci.
definizione di reef nel dizionario inglese
La prima definizione di barriera corallina nel dizionario è una cresta di roccia, sabbia, corallo, ecc, la cui sommità si trova vicino alla superficie del mare. Un'altra definizione di barriera corallina è una struttura a cresta o monticello costruita da organismi calcarei sedentari e costituita principalmente dai loro resti. La barriera corallina è anche una vena di minerale, specialmente uno di quarzo che porta l'oro.

It's a perfect wave when small and the most beautiful and scary wave on Earth when it's big, as the swell from deep water hits the shallow reef ledge. A ten-foot high wave and a 30-footer break in the same depth of water.
The coral that grows at the edge of the reef is always the strongest and most colourful because it faces the greatest battering. It's the same if you're called Honeysuckle. I'd have had a totally different life if I'd been called Mary.
