[Coral-List] Studies linking beach replenishment to coral reef stress

Can anyone suggest some studies that looks at what impact beach  
replenishment in S Florida has had on the coral reefs in the area?

Logically one would expect the sediment spill from first dredging and  
then the washing out from the beach, to cause siltation stress on the  
reefs, but I am looking for some hard data.

Thanks,
