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... -
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... -
Patterns of bleaching in corals at Myrmidon Reef on the Great Barrier Reef
Australian Institute of Marine Science
Annual changes in coral communities were monitored using six photo-transects (1 x 10 m) at Myrmidon Reef between November 1980 and December 1983. Three transects were at a... -
