Answer:
"An atoll is a living reef which is separated from the nearest land of volcanic origin by water having a depth greater than that at which hermatypic corals can grow". ... Hence, relatively shallow reefs (fringing and barrier) bordering volcanic islands are automatically excluded, as are patch reefs found in atoll lagoons.
