Coral growth rates of massive Porites, Lihir Island, Papua New Guinea
Australian Institute of Marine Science
Colonies (27) of massive Porites were collected in February 2001 from Lihir Island, Papua New Guinea. Eleven were from shallow water and 16 from deep water. Each colony was cut... -
Upwelling and bleaching on the Great Barrier Reef (MTSRF Project 2.5i.2)
Australian Institute of Marine Science
As part of MTSRF Task 2.5i.2, a range of indices were investigated to quantify upwelling on the central Great Barrier Reef (GBR), Australia. These indices are necessary for... -
Coral calcification in massive Porites in the nearshore region of the...
Australian Institute of Marine Science
Ten massive Porites colonies were collected from the fringing reefs of each of 4 inshore islands of the Great Barrier Reef in January 2004. Two reefs were located in the Far... -
Decadal changes in turbid-water coral communities at Pandora Reef, Great Barrier Reef
Australian Institute of Marine Science
The extent to which short-term 'losers' (vulnerable to episodic disturbances) can continue to re-establish themselves was examined at Pandora Reef, an inshore shallow turbid-... -
Interactive effects of herbicides and higher sea surface temperatures on...
Australian Institute of Marine Science
The coral, Acropora millepora and the crustose coralline algae, Neogoniolithon fosliei were exposed to 3 photosystem II (PSII) herbicides (diuron, hexazinone and atrazine).... -
Resilience model (MTSRF Project 2.5i.4)
Australian Institute of Marine Science
This simulation model allows various scenarios to be run which test how different percentages of nutrient reductions (and the parallel improvement in inshore reef quality) might... -
Role of zooxanthellae in the thermal tolerance of corals, Great Barrier Reef
Australian Institute of Marine Science
The acclimatization potential of Acropora millepora was investigated through transplantation and experimental manipulation. Twenty-two colonies were sourced from each of a cool... -
Recovery of Great Barrier Reef coral reefs from disturbance (The Three Reefs Project)
Australian Institute of Marine Science
Monitoring of the recovery of Green Island reef, Feather Reef and Rib Reef, after outbreaks of the crown-of-thorns starfish (Acanthaster planci) commenced in 1989. Starfish... -
Effects of thermal stress on fertilization and early embryogenesis in coral...
Australian Institute of Marine Science
Favites chinensis colonies were collected from the reef flat off Sesoko Island, Okinawa and transported to aquaria at Sesoko Station. After spawning, sperm and eggs were... -
Development of a genetic method to assess bleaching tolerance in corals...
Australian Institute of Marine Science
Next generation DNA sequencing was used to scan a large proportion of the transcribed coding DNA in Acropora millepora for polymorphisms. Transcribed coding DNA (messenger RNA -... -
Australian-Chinese Ocean Science & Technology: Conference Proceedings: November 2005
Ocean Technology Group (OTG), The University of Sydney (USYD)
