The role of turbulent hydrodynamics and surface morphology on heat and mass transfer in corals

Corals require efficient heat and mass transfer with the overlying water column to support key biological processes, such as nutrient uptake and mitigation of thermal stress. Transfer rates are primarily determined by flow conditions, coral morphology and the physics of the resulting fluid–structure...
