Thank you for the link. If possible it would be great if you could post the full reprint of the paper for those of us not able to access the journal article directly.

Dear colleagues,
I have recently come across a conference presentation by Ara et al. (2020) that was given at the 2020 International Conference on Earth and Environmental Sciences & Technology for Sustainable Development in Dhaka.
Deleted research item The research item mentioned here has been deleted
Sadly the study contains some very serious misinformation regarding the presence of "coral reefs" on St. Martin's Island. Here I am attaching a PDF file with a series of figures that illustrate the misclassification of a sedimentary rocky reef as a "coral reef" by Ara et al. (2020). I have also left a short comment on Ms. Ara's ResearchGate web page.
Cheers,
Tom
