Non-invasive estimation of coral polyp volume and surface area using optical coherence tomography
The surface area (SA) and three-dimensional (3D) morphology of reef-building corals are central to their physiology. A challenge for the estimation of coral SA has been to meet the required spatial resolution as well as the capability to preserve the soft tissue in its native state during measuremen...
