Zusammenfassung

As tropical reefs decline, it is crucial to understand the role of coral growth drivers across different spatiotemporal scales. Here, we estimated growth variables (linear extension, bulk density, calcification) using skeletal band records (1926–2015) of two colonies of the Brazilian-endemic coral Mussismilia braziliensis collected at different distances from the shore (15 and 70 km offshore). We ...
