Portraying Gradients of Structural Complexity in Coral Reefs Using Fine-Scale Depth Profiles

Structural complexity is an important feature to understand reef resilience abilities, through its role in mediating predator-prey interactions, regulating competition, and promoting recruitment. Most of the current methods used to measure reef structural complexity fail to quantify the contribution...
