Fig. 3

Box plots showing a branch thickness and b porosity between shallow (blue; triangle point up) and mesophotic (red; triangle point down) Stylophora corals (n = 15 per depth). Horizontal lines depict the median, box height depicts the interquartile range, whiskers depict ±1.5× interquartile range, and dots represent outliers. Asterisk denotes significance (p < 0.01).
