Human Impact Pt 2

The second method is dynamite fishing where fishermen light dynamite, place it in the water, and cause an explosion with a medium process that is also meant to stun the fish.The explosions turn what used to be part of a coral reef into sandy rubble, causing slow or little recovery because it is hard for the coral to continue growing on loose sand instead of the live coral cover (6).
