Abstract

The drilling of the Porites Coral Reef type in Ungge Island, Tapanuli Sub Region, and North Sumatra Indonesia was carried out by using a hand drill Pneumatic at the depth of 5 m. The aim of the research is to analyze the growth of annual ring formed at dry and rainy seasons from 1997-2012, based on two natural causes:
