Images of coral drill-site 2.5A with the 2.5 m raised-reef lagoon. (a) Configuration of the deep-water lagoonal reef on 13 February 2004, about one year before the 28 March 2005 earthquake. (b) Raised reef on 17 February 2014 with exposure of new land and isolation of the shallowed lagoon due to uplift. Yellow circles show corals 2.5A-1 and 2.5A-3 drilled in May 2009. (c) 21 June 2006 image of raised Porites corals that colonized new seafloor created by subsidence prior to uplift. The Porites-dominated reef exposed along the coast (background) is adjacent to shallow, turbid lagoonal water. Map images are on Google Earth Pro 7.3.6.9345 (2022 version) at http://www.google.com/earth/index.html (accessed July 13, 2023).
