Redalyc · Ciencias Marinas
Growth characteristics (extension rate, density, and calcification rate) were determined using annual growth bands in skeletons of the reef-building coral Montastraea annularis, collected at 10 m depth on the northwest coast of Cuba. X-radiography contact prints revealed that the high-density band i...

Se determinaron las características del crecimiento (tasa de extensión, densidad y tasa de calcificación) utilizando las bandas de crecimiento anual de ejemplares del coral constructor de arrecifes Montastraea annularis, recolectados a 10 m de profundidad en la costa noroccidental de Cuba. Las bandas de alta densidad se formaron durante los meses más calidos del año. Las características del crecimiento obtenidas estuvieron dentro de los intervalos de valores estimados por otros autores para esta especie en arrecifes del Atlántico. Las relaciones observadas entre las características del crecimiento medidas fueron similares a las descritas previamente por otros autores. La relación observada entre la tasa de calcificación y el gradiente de temperatura del agua superficial en el Caribe sugiere que la población de M. annularis en la costa noroccidental de Cuba está relacionada con las poblaciones de esta especie del Caribe y no con las del Golfo de México. |
