Spatial variation in the morphological traits of Pocillopora verrucosa along a depth gradient in Taiwan.
Pocillopora verrucosa is a widely distributed depth-generalist coral that presents plasticity in its skeletal macro- and microstructure in response to environmental gradients. Light and water movement, which covary with depth, are the main environmental drivers of morphological plasticity in this ge...
