Coral growth and morphology based on snail presence Dataset Description: Methods and Sampling: <p>12 corals were selected with Coralliophila violacea.&nbsp; A random snail was selected, and a similar location identified on the coral for comparison.&nbsp; At each location, a 20cm by 20cm plexiglass plate was placed against the coral, and 20 randomly selected depth measurements taken.&nbsp; The variance of those measurements is reported.&nbsp; A nail was then hammered into the coral at each location, and the length recorded.&nbsp; &nbsp;After 1 year, the corals were revisited, and the measurements repeated to calculate change in nail length (coral linear extension) and change in morphology (change in variance of depth measurements).&nbsp;</p>

Spatial patterns of coral-vermetid interactions: short-term effects and long-term consequences

Spatial patterns of coral-vermetid interactions: short-term effects and long-term consequences
<p><em>Description from NSF abstract:</em><br />
Ecological surprises are most likely to be manifest in diverse communities where many interactions remain uninvestigated. Coral reefs harbor much of the world's biodiversity, and recent studies by the investigators suggest that one overlooked, but potentially important, biological interaction involves vermetid gastropods. Vermetid gastropods are nonmobile, tube-building snails that feed via an extensive mucus net. Vermetids reduce coral growth by up to 80%, and coral survival by as much as 60%. Because effects vary among coral taxa, vermetids may substantially alter the structure of coral communities as well as the community of fishes and invertebrates that inhabit the coral reef.</p>
<p>The investigators will conduct a suite of experimental and observational studies that: 1) quantify the effects of four species of vermetids across coral species to assess if species effects and responses are concordant or idiosyncratic; 2) use meta-analysis to compare effects of vermetids relative to other coral stressors and determine the factors that influence variation in coral responses; 3) determine the role of coral commensals that inhabit the branching coral, Pocillopora, and evaluate how the development of the commensal assemblage modifies the deleterious effects of vermetids; 4) determine how vermetid mucus nets affect the local environment of corals and evaluate several hypotheses about proposed mechanisms; and 5) assess the long-term implications of vermetids on coral communities and the fishes and invertebrates that depend on the coral.</p>
