Effects of herbivore grazing on juvenile coral growth in the Gulf of Mexico
This study demonstrates how herbivore grazing and substrate variations influence coral recruitment patterns at the Flower Garden Banks, Gulf of Mexico, for two brooding coral species, Agaricia spp. and Porites spp. Three herbivore treatments, two tile textures and two tile orientations were tested. Herbivore grazing significantly affected coral recruit growth for both species. These data sugges...
متن کاملTracking Transmission of Apicomplexan Symbionts in Diverse Caribbean Corals
Symbionts in each generation are transmitted to new host individuals either vertically (parent to offspring), horizontally (from exogenous sources), or a combination of both. Scleractinian corals make an excellent study system for understanding patterns of symbiont transmission since they harbor diverse symbionts and possess distinct reproductive modes of either internal brooding or external br...
متن کاملWhere do clonal coral larvae go? Adult genotypic diversity conflicts with reproductive effort in the brooding coral Pocillopora damicornis
Earlier studies of the coral Pocillopora damicornis provide a conflicting picture of its use of sexual and asexual reproduction for population maintenance. In Western Australia, colonies are asexually viviparous, and populations appear to be maintained by localised asexual recruitment but founded by genotypically diverse colonists. However, on Australia’s Great Barrier Reef (GBR), as in many ot...
متن کاملElevated Temperature Alters the Lunar Timing of Planulation in the Brooding Coral Pocillopora damicornis
Reproductive timing in corals is associated with environmental variables including temperature, lunar periodicity, and seasonality. Although it is clear that these variables are interrelated, it remains unknown if one variable in particular acts as the proximate signaler for gamete and or larval release. Furthermore, in an era of global warming, the degree to which increases in ocean temperatur...
متن کاملthe survey of the virtual higher education in iran and the ways of its development and improvement
این پژوهش با هدف "بررسی وضعیت موجود آموزش عالی مجازی در ایران و راههای توسعه و ارتقای آن " و با روش توصیفی-تحلیلی و پیمایشی صورت پذیرفته است. بررسی اسنادو مدارک موجود در زمینه آموزش مجازی نشان داد تعداد دانشجویان و مقاطع تحصیلی و رشته محل های دوره های الکترونیکی چندان مطلوب نبوده و از نظر کیفی نیز وضعیت شاخص خدمات آموزشی اساتید و وضعیت شبکه اینترنت در محیط آموزش مجازی نامطلوب است.
