Rates of coral growth accumulated from a meta-analysis of the scientific literature
Abstract:
As part of reef-composition surveys of Palau (7°30' N, 134°30' E) and Yap (9°32' N, 138°7' E), the extension rates and density of coral species were collected from Prachett et al. (2015), and a meta-analysis of scientific literature to assist with quantifying the production of reef carbonate.
