Prediction of habitat complexity using a trait-based approach on coral reefs in Guam

Abstract Scleractinian corals are primary contributors to the structural complexity of coral reef ecosystems. The structure derived from their carbonate skeletons underpins the biodiversity and myriad of ecosystem services provided by coral reefs. This study used a trait-based approach to provide ne...
