Effects of upwelling, depth, morphology and polyp size on feeding in three species of Panamanian corals

We examined the effects of upwelling, depth, morphology and polyp size on coral feeding in 3 coral species in the eastern Pacific. Feeding rates and the species composition of zooplankton captured by these species were observedin situon a shallow patch reef at Isla Contadora, Gulf of Panamá, in Febr...
