The photo-physiological costs associated with acute sediment stress events in three near-shore turbid water corals
Many coral reef communities thriving in inshore coastal waters characterised by chronically high natural turbidity (>5 mg l-1) have adapted to low light (<200 µmol photons m-2 s-1) and high sedimentation rates (>10 mg cm-2 d-1). Yet, short (hours) acute sediment stress events driven by wind...
