Are colony growth rates depth-dependent in the Mediterranean red coral? by M. Canessa, M. Bo, A. Cau, G. Corriero, M. C. Follesa, M. Mercurio, R. Sandulli, G. Villani, G. Bavestrello

“…This study aimed to investigate the potential effect of depth on colony growth by analysing a set of morphometric parameters - basal diameter, height, weight, total branch length (TBL), and number of apexes - normalised per year. The analysis was conducted on 59 specimens collected from shallow (<60 m) and mesophotic (>60 m) banks along the Italian coast, which are subject to diverse environmental conditions. …”
