Modelling growth and form of the scleractinian coral Pocillopora verrucosa and the influence of hydrodynamics.
The growth of scleractinian corals is strongly influenced by the effect of water motion. Corals are known to have a high level of phenotypic variation and exhibit a diverse range of growth forms, which often contain a high level of geometric complexity. Due to their complex shape, simulation models...
