达尔文的珊瑚礁下沉理论源于他对火山活动和全球地质学的广泛兴趣。他对珊瑚礁的观察暗含着证明海底下沉的意图。虽然回想起来，他关于环礁、堡礁和海底下沉的证据并不充分，但这两种观点都经受住了钻孔和海底扩张的现代检验。（1982年3月16日接受出版）
Darwin's coral reef subsidence theory derived from his broader interests in vulcanicity and global geology. His reef observations were implicitly intended to demonstrate ocean floor subsidence. Although in retrospect his evidence for subsidence of atolls and barrier reefs and of ocean floors was insufficient, both ideas have survived the modern tests of boreholes and sea floor spreading.
