[HTML][HTML] Modelling Growth and Form of the Scleractinian Coral Pocillopora verrucosa and the Influence of Hydrodynamics

N Chindapol, JA Kaandorp… - PLoS computational …, 2013 - journals.plos.org
The growth of scleractinian corals is strongly influenced by the effect of water motion. Corals
are known to have a high level of phenotypic variation and exhibit a diverse range of growth
forms, which often contain a high level of geometric complexity. Due to their complex shape,
simulation models represent an important option to complement experimental studies of
growth and flow. In this work, we analyzed the impact of flow on coral's morphology by an
accretive growth model coupled with advection-diffusion equations. We performed …
