Community ecology of mesophotic coral reef ecosystems (2010, background): “For several corals, areal polyp density decreases with depth (e.g., Lasker 1981; Villinski 2003; Einbinder et al. 2009 ), which may lower coral tissue biomass per unit surface area and metabolic demand (Dustan 1979).”
Low connectivity and declining genetic variability along a depth gradient in Corallium rubrum populations (2011, background): “…and gorgonian corals is influenced by the depth at which they live because depth affects the feeding capabilities of passive suspension feeders and consequently their potential energy reserve storage (see Harland et al. 1992; Tsounis et al. 2006a; Vermeij and Bak 2003; Einbinder et al. 2009).”
Connectivity and stability of mesophotic coral reefs (2011, result): “to the results reported by Einbinder et al. (2009). Additionally, these authors make the case that the δN values of these corals over their”
