From: Coral larvae are poor swimmers and require fine-scale reef structure to settle
Settlement success of coral larvae in oscillating flume tank. Proportion of Isopora cuneata larvae making (a) contact with settlement substrates covered with CCA and forming (b) attachment for more than 5 min. Substrate treatments were: microscope slide, flat settlement tile and block. For substrates where contact was observed, flume experiments were run separately with live and dead larvae. Standard errors illustrate statistical differences; also see Table 3.
