Abstract/Description: | Growth study for 2 years, in rspect of skeletal extension, was conducted in situ at Kavaratti atoll. Average annual rate of extension of branches was 7.9 ± 2 cm for first year and 8.2 ± 1.8 em for second year. Growth of individual branches exhibited intracolony variations. Monthly rate of growth was found to be slower during monsoon (June-September) when compared to premonsoon (February-May) .and postmonsoon (October-January) seasons. Environmental conditions at the study area, with the exceptIOn of the amount of sediments in water, seemed conducive to the growth of Acropora formosa. |
