Monte Carlo Modeling of Photon Propagation Reveals Highly Scattering Coral Tissue

Corals are very efficient at using solar radiation, with photosynthetic quantum efficiencies approaching theoretical limits. Here, we investigated potential mechanisms underlying such outstanding photosynthetic performance through extracting inherent optical properties of the living coral tissue and...
