Hi,
I am doing my dissertation at the moment- working on a coral health index. I used Caulastrea and Pocillopora.
I noticed that when I removed the Caulastrea from the water, it expelled water and became less plump. I am struggling now to find a reference to back this theory up and was wondering if anyone knew the mechanism by which Caulastrea polyps became plump. I would be very grateful if someone could point me in the right direction.
Thanks
Jess
