Light control of growth form in colonial reef corals: computer simulation.

R R Graus, I G Macintyre.   

Abstract

Computer simulation with plotter output reveals the close interrelation between ambient light and the skeletal morphogenesis of the massive Caribbean reef coral Montastrea annularis. This technique illustrates a new quantitative approach to evaluating ecological growth responses of colonial organisms.
