Growth Patterns of Reef-Building <i>Porites</i> Species in the Remote Clipperton Atoll Reef by Ania Ochoa-Serena, J. J. Adolfo Tortolero-Langarica, Fabián A. Rodríguez-Zaragoza, Juan P. Carricart-Ganivet, Eric Clua, Alma P. Rodríguez-Troncoso

“…The results showed that during 2015–2019, corals exhibited the lowest annual linear extension (0.65 ± 0.29 cm yr⁻¹), skeletal density (1.14 ± 0.32 g cm⁻³), and calcification rates (0.78 ± 0.44 g cm⁻² yr⁻¹) for the genera along the Pacific. Differences in growth patterns among species were observed, with <i>Porites lutea</i> and <i>Porites lobata</i> showing a higher radial extension, developing massive-hemispherical morphologies, and acting as structural stabilizers; meanwhile, <i>P. arnaudi</i> and <i>P. australiensis</i> exhibited more skeletal compaction but also with a high plasticity on their morphologies, contributing to benthic heterogeneity. …”
