The potential for coral reef establishment through free-living stabilization

HIGHLIGHTS

• who: S. J. Hennige from the PhysiologyTo assess whether coralliths are physiologically specialized for a mobile life in comparison to static conspecifics, standard physiological parameters including photosynthetic efficiency, calcification, oxygen production, and reflectance profiles (which are a function of pigmentation, structure and morphology) were examined. PAM fluorometry. Rapid light curves (RLC) were conducted on the upper and lower (orientation as found) surfaces of all P. lutea coralliths (n=10) and control static colonies (n=5) in mid-afternoon (15:00-16:00) using a Diving, Pulse Amplitude Modulated fluorometer (Walz, GMBH), following Hennige et_al19. Incubations. Calcification rates . . .
