Photoacclimation and induction of light-enhanced calcification in the mesophotic coral Euphyllia paradivisa
Corals and their photosymbionts experience inherent changes in light along depth gradients, leading them to have evolved several well-investigated photoacclimation strategies. As coral calcification is influenced by light (a process described as LEC—‘light-enhanced calcification’), studies have soug...
