Modelling growth and form of the scleractinian coral Pocillopora verrucosa and the influence of hydrodynamics.

In the flow simulations, we found a decreasing trend of the horizontal symmetry angle ( h angle ) when increasing Pe , as opposed to the vertical symmetry angle ( v angle , see Figure 11A ) and the symmetry magnitude ( sm mag , see Figure 12A ).

The controlled coral (CT_456) has the highest surface/volume ratio whereas for the rest of the corals, we found an increasing trend when Pe_branch and Re_branch increased.
