Trophic strategy and bleaching resistance in reef-building corals

Ocean warming increases the incidence of coral bleaching, which reduces or eliminates the nutrition corals receive from their algal symbionts, often resulting in widespread mortality. In contrast to...

This is the first chapter published from my PhD @HKUniversity

We used SIBER analysis from @yodacomplex et al but applied it to SIA data from coral host/algal symbiont pairs. The amount of overlap between the 2 indicates extent of C&N sharing in the holobiont
